Inspiration
The idea for FlipFiesta stemmed from a desire to create a captivating and enjoyable memory card game that could entertain and challenge users of all ages. The inspiration came from the classic concept of memory card games, where players flip cards to find matching pairs, coupled with a festive and celebratory theme.
What it does
This HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code collectively implements a memory card game named "FlipFiesta." The game features a grid of cards with a festive design. Players flip cards to find matching pairs, earning points for each successful match. The game tracks and displays the player's score. The JavaScript logic handles card flipping, matching, scoring, and includes functionality to restart the game. The card images and data are loaded from a JSON file, and the game incorporates animations to enhance the user experience.
