JSLines Game
Start The Game
The idea for this game was 'borrowed' directly from the 'GLines' game that ships with the GNOME desktop environment. I implemented it in JavaScript in 2003 as an exercise to learn about the DOM etc. I did some updates in 2018 to learn about CSS animations.
Game Play
- Arrange 5 or more balls of the same colour into a line (first click on a ball then click on an empty space).
- The ball you move cannot jump over another ball - it must follow a clear path.
- Lines can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal.
- When you form a line of five or more balls those balls will disappear and your score will be increased - the longer the line, the bigger the score.
- If you play to the end, your score may go on the high score board. It's stored in a cookie in your browser not on my server so it only tracks your scores.
- Click the word 'score' to view the high score board.
