Run Johnny

Run Johnny is an endless runner game built on phaser and nodejs

Brief overview of the game :-

• In this game you have to evade spikes which will approach you at a random velocity.

• You have to use the directional keys to evade those spikes.

• The spikes might collide with each other making the already randomized velocities even more random.

• The velocity might vary from time to time because of the acceleration setting so the spikes might approach you too quickly or too slowly.

• Acceleration can even change midway.

• Aside from the spikes there are asteroids.

• Asteroids won't kill you but they will hamper your gameplay by blocking your jumps, colliding with you , changing your velocity etc.

• Asteroids are a double-edged sword. They will ruin your gameplay but at the same time they can also aid you.

• You can junp on an asteroid and evade the spikes.

• Your score is determined by how long you can last in the game.

run_johnny's Issues

infinite score

There is a bug i discovered while playing this game.
If "developers tools" is opened or just the if current window is minimized ,
the canvas rendering is stopped and so as the audio (which i think is normal ), But the Variable "SCORE" seems keep on incrementing it's value (which i think is the issue) , so if we do this for a long we can definitely call it as INFINITE SCORE!

I have attached a GIF f file related to the issue.
