Bouncing rocks

Story of the game

This is my very first game that I ever made! It was originally made in pygame zero, but after some time I decided to distribute it, so I tried using pygbag with a new version in pygame, but I failed. A lot of times. So, a few days ago, I learned the basics of JavaScript and remade the game from scratch in this language and I ended up with this.

How to play

The game is very simple: you are the cannon at the center and you have to move left and right using the arrow keys to avoid (and destroy) the rocks that come from the sides while bouncing. Every rock color means a different thing: the dark gray ones are small or normal, based on their dimension. The green rocks give a permanent buff to the player and raise his damage by a randomly chosen number. The red rocks add more (or less) points: it can go from a very high number to even a negative one!

If you want to pause the game, just press "P" on your keyboard and the game will freeze until you press the key again. When you lose, you can press the Exit button to return to the menu or you can press the spacebar to play again.

Note: it is completely normal that the exit and Options buttons in the menu don't do anything: they are still WIP and the Exit one is even useless for a web game, but I felt that they would look great in the menu.
