Hello Coder! Welcome To The Codewithrandom Blog. In This Blog, We Learn How To Create Ping Pong Game Using JavaScript. Ping Pong Game is like table tennis we have 2 scroll bar thumb and a center line so we move the scroll bar and play Ping Pong Game and the score is shown in the header of the project.
I Hope You Enjoy Our Blog So Let's Start With A Basic Html Structure For Ping Pong Game.
Ping Pong Game Html Code:-
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Ping Pong Game</title>
<!--Stylesheet-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<canvas></canvas>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
There is all the Html code for the ping pong game code. Simple Blank Output with the canvas tag. Now, you can see output without css and javascript. Then we write css & javascript for the ping pong game.
Ping Pong Game CSS Code:-
body {
text-align: center;
}
Here Is Our Updated Output With Html And Css Code For Ping Pong Game.
Ping Pong Game Javascript Code:-
