📝 Challenge Brief: Build a Browser-Based Memory Match Game
Introduction
Welcome to this month's coding challenge at Bournecoders! This time, we're inviting you to dive into the world of web development and create a browser-based Memory Match Game. This challenge is perfect for beginners and offers a great opportunity to enhance your skills in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Your Mission
Your task is to build a Memory Match Game. The game involves flipping cards to find pairs of matching images. It's a fun way to get hands-on with coding while creating something interactive and engaging.
Requirements
Your game should allow users to:
- Start a new game
- Click on cards to flip them over
- Match pairs of cards based on the images
- Keep track of the number of attempts
- Display a message when all pairs are matched
- Include a timer to challenge users to beat their previous times
- Reset the game to play again
- View the game interface optimally on different devices (responsive design)
- Interact with all game elements using a keyboard
- Bonus: Incorporate sound effects for flipping cards and matching pairs
Assets Provided
- Starter HTML file with basic game layout
- CSS file with a basic design system (colors, fonts, etc.)
- A set of images for the memory cards
- A README file to guide you through the setup
💡 Ideas to Challenge Yourself
- Implement different difficulty levels (e.g., more cards for higher difficulty)
- Include a leaderboard to save high scores
- Use CSS animations for flipping cards and winning the game
- Create a theme-switcher to toggle between light and dark modes
- Enhance the game by adding a backend to store high scores and player stats
