This is a submission for the Web Game Challenge, Build a Game: Alien Edition
What I Built
I created a fun and engaging HTML5 game called Alien Meteor Dodge. In this game, players control an alien ship, navigating through falling meteors while collecting power-ups and avoiding obstacles. The goal is to survive as long as possible while scoring points by collecting green meteors.
Demo
You can play the game directly in your browser using this link: Play Alien Meteor Dodge.
You can also view the code in my public repository here: GitHub Repository.
Journey
The development process was both challenging and rewarding. I started by brainstorming game mechanics and then laid out the basic game structure using HTML5 and JavaScript. I learned how to manage game states, handle user inputs, and implement collision detection.
One of the most rewarding aspects was designing power-ups that enhance gameplay, such as slow-motion effects and a speed boost, which adds strategic elements for players.
I’m particularly proud of the fluid animations and responsive controls, which make the game feel smooth and enjoyable. Moving forward, I hope to add more features, such as different alien types, levels, and possibly sound effects to enrich the gaming experience.
Additionally, I've included an MIT license for my code, allowing others to freely use and modify it.
