This has been so much fun and I have learned so much...
I wanted to find a starting point into making a game and was looking for the easiest starting point for someone familiar with html, css and js - so here I am with the HTML Canvas - I have been using OOP principles to create the game and I am really enjoying it. There's loads of things I want to do to extend this but I've been so happy to find a starting point! and celebrating this as a win!
