Pong

Pong Game Replica

Classic Pong game replica I made for my Web Development class final. I was proud of my coding ability in this game, and I made it completely web accessible using CodePen. There were some bumps in the road along the way, as this was my first game I created using JavaScript, but I was able to learn a new language and solve most of the problems I ran into by using my resources.

Development Process

-I worked as the Full Stack Developer as this was a solo project I did for my Web Development Final

-Made completely through JavaScript using CodePen as its host

-Learning a new language was a challenge at first, but by the end of the project I felt strong about my abilities
using JavaScript

-I only had about a month and a half for scope, and the main focus for the project was programming not design

-The most challenging part to code was the physics of the ball and the opponent AI

-At first my game was full of bugs, and I was proud of my ability to debug the game to get it working

-This is a simple yet classic game that I felt showcased some of my programming ability using JavaScript

-Snippets from the code are shown below and free to use

Creating the User Interface

This is where I was having an issue with a bug not allowing the ball to bounce multiple times
