Create Flappy Bird Game Using JavaScript and HTML5 | JavaScript Project For Beginners

Flappy Bird was a side-scrolling mobile game featuring 2D retro style graphics. The objective was to direct a flying bird, named "Faby", who moves continuously to the right, between sets of Mario-like pipes. If the player touches the pipes, they lose. Faby briefly flaps upward each time that the player taps the screen; if the screen is not tapped, Faby falls because of gravity; each pair of pipes that he navigates between earns the player a single point, with medals awarded for the score at the end of the game. No medal is awarded to scores less than ten. A bronze medal is given to scores between ten and twenty. In order to receive the silver medal, the player must reach 20 points. The gold medal is given to those who score higher than thirty points. Players who achieve a score of forty or higher receive a platinum medal. Android devices enabled the access of world leaderboards, through Google Play.

There is no variation or evolution in gameplay throughout the game, as the pipes always have the same gap between them and there is no end to the running track, having only the flap and ding sounds and the rising score as rewards.

And today you're going to create the Flappy Bird game using JavaScript and HTML (or HTML5 canvas).

We're not using any framework to build the game, Just Vanilla JavaScript.

This is a beginner's guide on how to create the flappy bird game using JavaScript and HTML.

Wow! Following your video, I made my first game. I am looking forward to seeing you have more tutorials. Thanks!

[zamayt]

i watched all the tutorials about how to make a game on the yt and didnt understand all of it until i watched this video
thx for the tuto bro.

[FilmmakerJ]

This was fantastic. I went back and forth through this video a few times and actually managed to understand most of what was going on, even though I've never looked at JavaScript in my life. I've just started on my journey to learn Web code like HTML, CSS, PHP, and JavaScript, and this video was immensely helpful in walking me through the actual relationship between the many variables and functions. Thank you so so much.

[matthewsinclair]

You deserve so many subs because I’ve been looking for a tutorial explaining JavaScript and this is the best one ever! Well done and keep it up!

[faycalbenlarbidelai]

I've watched tuts for years yet none f them were as clear as this, the kind of clarity that makes one feel stupid like...."WHY WAS THIS HARD FOR ME!!" lol

[gouravchouhan]

Bird fall due to acceleration due to gravity, acceleration affects velocity which in turn changes Y position, if you consider would consider that your Bird will look actually falling. Well overall nice tutorial ❤️❤️👍

[LookjaklooK]

Really clear and good explanation! Never seen anything like that in a while! You earned a subscriber ;)

[JSSolutions]
