A Small Wager

My students bet me I couldn’t have made a simple game in an hour. I gave them an assignment to do after lecture and by the time they were done I had a basic clone of Beyblades - the top game I played as a kid - running in PhaserJS.

They didn’t know how much lifting that game engines do, so it was a good trick to get them to understand just how much in software, that we “stand on the shoulders of giants” :) (Shout outs to Phaser.js)

Here it is! WASD for P1, Arrow Keys for P2 - every time you hit the other player, you go faster and if you hit enough times you may KO them from the arena!
