Project to build the popular game applying some Javascript fundamental concepts. For this project I wanted to use the Phaser library to give it the look of a game so it has sound and animated objects.
The goal in this project is to use Factories to represent each intity in the game (players, boards etc), also private variables and functions to hide code needed just inside a factory and the Module pattern to immediately start the game.
- Fhaser 3: Library to create games.
- Clone the repository in a local folder
- Go to the project folder and run
npm installto install all development dependencies
Run http-server server
- Run the server in the console with
http-serverand check the url the server will listen to - In the browser go to the url provided by
http-server, normally it ishttp://127.0.0.1:8080/
In addition to start the game, the module Game has two main tasks:
- Create the Phaser game object: this object initialize the scenes in which the project is structured (intro, game and end)
- Build the internal logic: create the players, board and check status of the game
Eech scene can be thought as an extention of the Phaser game object so it can be used anywhere inside those scenes. One thing to note here is that the scenes don't have the Factory style, they use the class style. I got an error when I tried to apply the factory style to them related to the nonuse of the new operator to get the scene object.

The first time the live demo is run, it might take some seconds to load and switch between scenes but next times it will be faster.
