For this project, I leveraged my prior knowledge of HTML and CSS alongside the new JavaScript skills I learned to create an interactive web application: an endless runner game. Using HTML for the structure and CSS for styling (however, that was not the focus).
JavaScript was key in bringing the game to life, allowing me to implement dynamic gameplay features such as character movement, collision detection, and score tracking. The game runs endlessly, providing users with an engaging and fun challenge. This project helped me apply both my foundational web development skills and new JavaScript techniques in a real-world context.

reflection
This project stands out as quite different from the others in my portfolio, but it is definitely just as valuable to mention. It played a key role in building my confidence as a developer and taught me how to design with the developer in mind, a crucial skill for creating designs that are both functional and easy to implement. Additionally, I discovered a passion for programming and creating interactive applications, which brought my typically static designs to life and added an extra dimension to my work.
