Bamba, stands for 'back to Mamba'. An old 80s game, which was derived from Snake. Remaking it in HTML 5 was a great way to acquire more knowlegde of the technologies that come with this new standard.
You start with a short moving Mamba. With the arrow keys you can direct the Mamba. You can score points by collecting the points (
) in the game area. With every point you collect your Mamba will grow, up until the point where the last part of the tail will become a wall (
). While you collect more points some parts of the wall, maybe replaced by a 'star' (
). You can collect these stars, they are 10 times more valuable than normal points. The game ends when your Mamba hits the border, a wall or itself.
Keys:
Arrows keys - to control the direction of the Mamba
P - Play/Pause the game
S - Save game
