Vanilla javaScript Game with HTML and CSS

A super simple walkthourgh to coding Pac-Man in vanilla JavaScript, HTML and CSS. View here

I have kept the styling at a bare miniumum for you to go wild and make it your own. Please tag me as I would LOVE to see your game!!!

In this game I show you how to make Pac-Man move around the grid while avoiding walls, show you how to use the constructor method for all four ghosts to apply their unque characterisitcs to each one, including at what speed they move at. Clyde obviously being the slowest.

Inbuilt JavaScript functions I have used:

  • addEventListener()
  • getElementById()
  • querySelector()
  • for Loop
  • appendChild()
  • createElement()
  • push()
  • if else statements
  • classList
  • switch case
  • keyCode
  • forEach()
  • setTimeout
  • Class
  • constructor
  • setInterval()
  • removeEventListener

Next steps:

My next goal is to make a copy of this game and apply logic to the ghost moves. At the moment they are choosing a direction to go in at random. I want to apply logic that makes them move closer to wherever Pac-man is.

Watch this space.
