A retro-inspired Gorilla Game built with HTML Canvas and JavaScript, bringing back the charm of the 1990’s classic.
Players control gorillas perched on skyscrapers and take turns hurling bananas across the skyline, adjusting angle and velocity to land a hit on the opponent.
- Two-player turn-based gameplay
- Adjustable angle and velocity for banana throws
- Randomized city skyline for replay variety
- Simple, nostalgic graphics reminiscent of the original QBasic Gorilla Game
- A modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari)
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/Gorilla_Game.git
- Navigate to the project folder:
cd Gorilla_Game - Open index.html in your browser to start playing.
-
Enter the angle (degrees) and velocity (pixels/second) for your throw.
-
Watch your banana arc across the skyline.
-
Try to hit the opposing gorilla before they hit you!
Special thanks to freeCodeCamp for their excellent tutorial that inspired and guided the creation of this project. Without their clear explanations and step-by-step walkthrough, this nostalgic remake wouldn’t have been possible.
