Playing around with Spritesheet Animation and came up with this simple timer-based game. Would love any usability feedback.

This version requires a keyboard so it doesn’t work very well on smartphone browsers. May make a touchscreen version in the next few weeks if I have time.

I got 2000! This game is helping me get the hang of using the arrow keys on the MacBook keyboard :slight_smile:.

One improvement could be to make the collision detection work so if the character touches any part of the coin it will count; I found I needed to keep moving around to get the hit point even though it looked like I should have gotten it.

Thanks! I did the collision detection based off the distance between the top left position of the coin and the top left position of the character. Next time, I plan to do it based off the center point of each element.

Appreciate the feedback!

My recommendation would be to see if either bounding boxes of the element vs. player intersect; this way any contact will work to pick up the coin!
