Overview

Cluck Cluck Moo is an infinitely scrolling vertical jumping game, inspired by classics like PapiJump and the amazing Winterbells.

Cluck Cluck Moo is easy to learn but hard to master: the controls are as simple as moving the mouse, but will still easily eat up hours of your time as you try to reach a new high score.

Implementation Details

Uses a promise object to check global high score before resolving the promise and drawing high scores on screen.

  let highScore;
  getScore().then((score) => {
    highScore = score;
    let newHighScore = false;
    if (chicken.score > highScore) {
      updateScore(chicken.score);
      highScore = chicken.score;
      newHighScore = true;
    }
    drawScoreBox(chicken, highScore, newHighScore);
  });

Additionally checks local high score by reading from a cookie.

  const getPersonalHighScore = (chicken) => {
    const highScore = docCookies
      .getItem('highScore') || chicken.score;
    if (chicken.score > highScore) {
      docCookies.setItem('highScore', `${chicken.score}`);
    }
    return highScore;
  };
