Hello! Thank you for reviewing this project! I chose to do a Harry Potter-themed game since I'm unfamiliar with the original game and also, hello, I am a nerd.
Run:
npm install http-server -ghttp-serverto start- visit localhost:8080
Noted issues:
- Multiple files not bundled and minified (based on the instructions, this was not needed but wanted to note I'm aware it would be best practice)
- The code for placing "food" without collision is inefficient as it will take more time to find non-collision coordinates at the snake grows
- Due to the use of setTimeout, the user can update the state multiple times in a row at a greater rate than the loop can draw. If the setTimeout is sufficiently fast, this is less problematic. I've used generator functions before to resolve async issues with a Tamagotchi game and I might have figured out an approach using generators here.
- I chose to spend the majority of the time on the logic and functionality -- less time on the UI, so it's quite sad-looking.
