Meeting Announcements & Notes, Web Page Basics

December 1, 2017 Meeting

NOTE: Our December 1st meeting will be held at the St. Charles Public Library.  We will meet at the usual time 5:45PM to 7:45PM 

Agenda

  • Fix the Jelly Wobbly Gravity game! With the book’s original code, the character won’t move…the jellies are all dropping in the same line and splattering before hitting the floor…the character isn’t able to get sick from the jellies because the “collisions” have no effect. Let’s help The Dude enjoy (or not) his fill of jellies!
  • Make your own changes to any part of the game and/or to your site’s home page
    • We can do some changes as a group if there are suggestions and desire to do that
    • We can help each other with updates to individual pages

Resources

  • Go to the file on GitHub: Wobbly Jelly Gravity Corrected JavaScript
