The Mission

Ready for a next level challenge?

Have a square that you can move using the arrow keys. Have 4 other squares that move randomly around the screen. When the player square hits the other squares he loses a life (3 lives) and when all his lives are gone he loses the game. Show the time since the start how long he survived.

🌱 Must-have features

• Square that can be controlled
• Chasing squares
• Life mechanic

🌼 Nice-to-have features

• Graphics instead of squares
• How a visual timer to show the time that has elapsed
• Make "food" squares spawn that give an extra life when picked up
• Make a "god" square that makes the user immortal for the enemy squares.
• Maybe over time spawn more enemy squares.
• Go crazy
