Pseudocode: May 1st 2019
You will have 5:00min to make as much money as you can. This will be a high score beater game. The game will start with nothing happening just show the buttons you can click.
There will be anywhere from 4-6 buttons each button will be something you can use toward your drinks Player starts out with 10$
There will be an aside that will display timer countdown with how much time is left in the game and how much money has been accumulated. Also a reset button to play again
The circles will show icons/img of the upgrades that are being purchase.
The gray button will need to be pressed in order to active that timer. Once timer completes add specific value to money accumulated. They are all going to have initial timers for completion from shortest time (first button) to longest time(sixth button).
Code would be something like: -on click (grey button) -start timer or add time to timer -once time === 0 =>(this will prob be a while loop) -add button value to money accumulated
Buttons 2-6 will need be purchased first to use. Upgrades will also unlock which can be click go speed up timer for a price - it may or may not get more expensive each click also we will see…
Black buttons = { will be blacked out until money accumulated raises above cost once money acc is >= cost, button will become a different color signaling its available to click to purchase These buttons will subtract time off the original button timer each time its clicked but will deduct money also each time its click
}
Once your time has expired, game over, money accumulated is how much money you have accumulated selling lemonade…… can you beat it?
My game is a good old fashion clicker game!
The object of the game is to click the sell buttons in order to make as much money as you can within 100 seconds.
See above where I first thought 5 minutes was a good idea for play time.... You'll have enough after 100 seconds ;)
Now you also have upgrade buttons, however, that cost money and can only be clicked 3 times!
Good news is once you upgrade a certain clicker, the upgraded speed remains for the rest of the time.
I got my inspiration from a game called AdVenture Capitalist so if you enjoyed my game, I highly recommend playing this one!
The game starts off with an instruction page that shows the buttons that will appear and what they do.
Once you click start - it's time to sell lemonade!
There are four different items you can sell at the lemonade stand!
- Lemonade
- Lemonade w/ ice
- Lemonade w/ straw
- Lemonade w/ umbrella
Eachone of these items will take a certain amount of time to complete (the green status bar is time till completion).
Once complete, you will earn the money designated in the button clicked.
If you feel that it's taking to long to sell, why not try upgrading it! For a small fee of course...Just remember, it can only be clicked 3 times.
If you beat the highscore a nice little window will pop up congratulating you on a job well done!
If you do not beat the highscore, don't be to hard on yourself! A new day means a new dollar!
Once the games over try again with the RESET button! (located on the bottom left) - this will not reset your highscore, unless you refresh the page or close the browser.
For this project I incorporated:
- HTML
- JavaScript
- CSS
- a hole bunch of google/MDN/CSS Tricks :)
For Icebox items I plan on ...
- More CSS Animation when the button finishes the money pops up to show how much was just made
- Sounds when buttons are pressed or finished
- A sound for beating the highscore and not
- add a countdown for last 5 seconds
