Similar TutorialsOk so I'm in college and I'm taking my first web development class online. Unfortunate my teacher is awful. We have already "covered" html and some css and done a bit of java such as creating a prompt and a super simple calculator. However, for the final I have to make a 2 player game with at least 30 spaces and dice (random number generator). More importantly our "learn javascript in 24 hours" book doesn't cover this at all and my teacher is MIA like always. So, I have come to you all for help. I found a sample script that is almost exactly what I need for this project but it needs a bit of tweaking http://javascript.internet.com/games...ders-game.html I need to add 5 additional spaces and I wanted to add a ladder from space 24-27 and change the chute from 16-6 to 25-6. Unfortunately I'm kind of clueless on how to do this and make sure everything works properly.... Here is an image I made real quick of what I want it to look like And this is the requirements for the project. * Minimum Requirements for a C: o 2 players o 20 steps on the board o Random number generator o Game displays the location of each player on the board * Minimum Requirements for a B: o Everything above plus o Attractive user interface. o 30 steps on the board o Graphical random number generator (Example: Display the number as a dice image) * Minimum Requirements for an A: o Everything above plus o Educational game that shows facts as the players move around the game. Any help at all would be amazing and greatly appreciated |
