COWBOYS vs ALIENS: The Feud

Developers:

Summary

For this exciting project we wanted to mainly solidify our understanding of object-oriented programming (OOP) principles by building out a game show. We decided to base it on Family Feud, but with a sci-fi spin on Cowboys and Aliens, which we were pretty excited about! This was an opportunity to work with classes to build a program at a larger scale than we had in our previous projects. This was also an opportunity for ourselves to build out a program based on user stories - which we knew is more aligned to what we can expect to see when working with product managers in a production environment.

Goals

  • Write a program and UI/UX from scratch
  • Synthesize knowledge of OOP, classes, and JS fundamentals to create a playable game
  • Build this game by reading user stories on how this game plays out
  • We also implemented multiple class inheritances throughout the project
  • We wanted experience collaborating with multiple people and demostrate a good GitHub collaboration and workflow
  • Write modular, reusable code that follows SRP (Single Responibility Principle) and SOLID principle.
  • Create a robust test suite that thoroughly tests all functionality of a client-side application
  • Implement array iterator and mutator methods to work with game data
  • Fetch an API for sending and receiving game data
  • Style using CSS pre-processor SASS (SCSS)
  • Use of spies for testing the DOM manipulation
  • Get comfortable reviewing and writing feedback on each other's code in PR's

Built with:

  • JavaScript
  • HTML
  • SASS
  • Mocha, Chai & Spies
