Making a Type Racer inspired game called SharkTypers - Toscan - Jun 30, 2024 So for the past month or so I've been working on a website typing game project inspired by type racer. If you're interested in a short demo: https://sharktyper.com/ The initial goal was just to build something to learn JavaScript to make my websites more dynamic, but eventually it turned into a more serious project themed around Sharks. The game is meant to be a website, just like Type Racer but aiming to be a more fun and exciting, and overall a more enjoyable atmosphere for users. The typing part of the game is fully functional. Users get a randomized text prompt that they must complete in order to receive experience, scales and a placement of course! Spoiler (Click to View) Completed Log ------------------------- Refracted Original JavaScript file into a new React Project using Vite and Express for our Server. User Login/Registration Database API Persistent Cookies w/ JWT token React Routes User Profiles Sounds for winning, collecting, typing, errors. Overall Theme is completed (Not using any CSS framework "yet".) Started Adding Multiplayer Support using Socket.io / Socket.io-client Users can connect to room sockets and emit events to other players. Pending Features ------------------------- Update users new shark position to users in the same roomID. Input Validation / Sanitation Client & Server Side. User Password Hashing possibly using bcrypt unless there is something better? Add bots to race if room is not full. Will add more? Going to sleep for now. :) Any ideas / questions are greatly appreciated!
