Udacity (Front-End Web Developer Nanodegree Project): Memory Game.
This (fend) project aims to : put my HTML, CSS, and JavaScript skills on a real project by building a browser-based card matching game.
The game board consists of sixteen "cards" arranged in a grid. The deck is made up of eight different pairs of cards, each with different symbols on one side. The cards are arranged randomly on the grid with the symbol face down. The gameplay rules are very simple: flip over two hidden cards at a time to locate the ones that match.
At each turn:
- The player flips one card over to reveal its underlying symbol.
- The player then turns over a second card, trying to find the corresponding card with the same symbol.
- If the cards match, both cards stay flipped over.
- If the cards do not match, both cards are flipped face down.
The game ends once all cards have been correctly matched.
In the real-life game, players flip over cards to locate the pairs that match. The goal is to recreate this. These are the events that need to be handled:
- Flipping cards
- What happens when cards match
- What happens when cards do not match
- When the game finishes
You can play the game from here or you can clone it.
| Criteria | Specifications |
|---|---|
| Memory Game Logic | The game randomly shuffles the cards. A user wins once all cards have successfully been matched. |
| Congratulations Popup | When a user wins the game, a modal appears to congratulate the player and ask if they want to play again. It should also tell the user how much time it took to win the game, and what the star rating was. |
| Restart Button | A restart button allows the player to reset the game board, the timer, and the star rating. |
| Star Rating | The game displays a star rating (from 1-3) that reflects the player's performance. At the beginning of a game, it should display 3 stars. After some number of moves, it should change to a 2 star rating. After a few more moves, it should change to a 1 star rating. |
| Timer | When the player starts a game, a displayed timer should also start. Once the player wins the game, the timer stops. |
| Move Counter | Game displays the current number of moves a user has made. |
| Criteria | Specifications |
|---|---|
| Styling | Application uses CSS to style components for the game. |
| Usability | All application components are usable across modern desktop, tablet, and phone browsers. |
| Criteria | Specifications |
|---|---|
| README | A README file is included detailing the game and all dependencies. |
| Comments | Comments are present and effectively explain longer code procedure when necessary. |
| Code Quality | Code is formatted with consistent, logical, and easy-to-read formatting as described in the Udacity JavaScript Style Guide. |
