This project is a Candy Crush clone made with the Phaser HTML5 Game Framework, Using assets and tutorials from The Complete Mobile Game Development Course with Phaser by Pablo Farias Navarro (LINK). It uses a Node/Express server to serve static assets, and Mocha./Chai for unit testing.
You will need to have Node.js and npm installed in order to install additional dependencies. This project requires:
- "express": "^4.16.2" (Node.js Web Application Framework)
- "nodemon": "^1.17.1" (Monitors code changes and restarts Node.js server)
- "phaser": "^2.6.2" (HTML5 Game Framwork)
- "mocha": "^4.0.1" (Unit Testing Framework)
- "chai": "^4.1.2" (Testing Library)
To install dependencies, run the following script in the terminal: npm install.
When working on this project, run the following command from the root directory: npm run dev-start to start Nodemon. Nodemon will monitor your application for changes and then restart the server.
This repo saves the Phaser game as part of the MyGame object. If you want to change the MyGame object to a different name, go into scripts/createGame.js, scripts/startGame.js, scripts/state/BootState.js, scripts/state/PreloadState.js, scripts/state/HomeState.js, and scripts/state/GameState.js, and change MyGame to whatever name you would like.
This application is setup for unit testing with Mocha/Chai. Tests can be stored in the test/ directory.
NOTE: Your browser will likely throw an Uncaught ReferenceError. This is due to using module.exports in certain files for testing purposes. It is okay if this happens.
To run tests run either of the following command in the terminal:
npm run test
mocha
