What it does
HueDrops is a fun little game you can play in your browser. The goal is to fill the board with the target color (on the left!). By changing the color of the blob on the right, the balls with the same color are ‘absorbed’. To make it a more challenging, there is a scrambler ball, and a lock with key ball.
Why I built it
I flew from Copenhagen to New York and came across this game playable on the entertainment screen. Normally, I only look at the flightmap, my phone or laptop - but this time I chose to play the game. It looked pretty old, so after I landed, I looked the game up online but couldn’t find it - so I made it.
How it works
The game is made in Vue.js with Vite as the development server. The game is fully in rendered in the browser, I only use Vercel for hosting.
The difficult part is getting the blobs to connect. Once that was done, it was designing the UI (which uses components from previous projects) and design a few levels.
Next steps
The game is functional and works. It does lack some features I would like to add:
- Add animations to when the color changes and blobs get added
- Add level generation, based on a string that changes once a day
- Create a way to track your daily score and compare it to your friends (like Wordle)
