Another fun game showcasing my skills with vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Although it's not a unique game, I built it on my own. I used Stack Overflow articles and generic syntax reference materials rather than a step-by-step guide. You can read the blog entry to learn about some of the challenges and other commentary relevant to the project.
