Inspiration

I always wanted to create a simple and fun-to-play browser game. I was inspired by the Chrome Dino game, which is simple yet fun to play.

What it does

A robot keeps running and should escape the barriers coming on its way by jumping.

How I built it

It's built completely using bolt.new. It uses React/TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and HTML canvas.

Challenges I ran into

In the beginning the plan was to built a Kangaroo run. But creating a nice looking moving kangaroo graphics became difficult, the graphic object couldn't clearly represent kangaroo. So I had gone with robot whose graphics are bit easier to create and make it look like robot.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I'm proud that I was able to create this fun to play game just in a day and it gives the complete experience of playing a game with dynamic speed controls and object barriers.

What I learned

I learned how difficult it is to create a moving graphics object, especially for a living object. I plan to explore more about this and enhance this with living objects.

What's next for Robo runner

Add different characters other than robo, add themes, add various difficulty levels to choose from, persist user scores, and create a leaderboard to showcase the highest scores
