Bonus level will include of 1 minute of simple challenges. Will be needed for the player to get his timer to growth.

-Will appear after level 5 and from further on every 2 levels

-Will require different BG/music or effects to clarify what is it.

Depends on #3 #1

The interface on the web page that displays the timer, will probably be in the top right corner but will need to wait for #1

Currently, is getting repeated when it transforms

Adjust function to avoid floats on the first few levels, as well as check for strange JS float results.

This issue will require to have proper game element positions. While working on the positioning the elements can use a "temp" monster.

Will also require a background that "fits" the game.

Here we credit all the source materials, I believe we can also credit ourselves as the developers and leave a link to this repo.

Add special rewards functionality.

After completing a section (aka 1st 4 levels) or a bonus level the player gets a special reward.

(special rewards description coming soon)

Will need to add functionality for them, as well as icons and styling.

We need to have documented which are the rules for the game, here's somethings we need to clarify:

• What makes the timer increase and decrease? Personally I though the timer could increase if the player answers one operation correctly but maybe it will be better 3 operations.
• Which are the tools the monster will gather as it levels up? Also will the player keep the tools for the next play rounds?
• What happens with the monster once there's a game over?
• How often will the monster increase level? I was thinking it could by every full minute.

There are other things that may need to clarify.

Once the timer finishes there should be a game over message (should be something fun / teasing the player )

Once the message is over - guide to the leaderboard.

replace ending loop with the new one @MaxraySavage developed

Depends on #2
The interface that will enable the player to interact with the randomly generated operations

Create or find from open source material a monster (or similar like creatures) that can be for different phases as:
-baby
-child
-teenager
-adult.
(or any other growing system for the creature).

Add the monster to the screen and attach it to the levels

Effects for every additional bonus to the timer as well as damage effects ( can be for example a red blinking over the whole screen indicating danger)

Add all problem set displayed on the screen including the level difficulty increase

Where we currently have the start button we need to create a proper start page.

The page will need to include a start button, request players name (in future we will need to use a local storage or database to save it) and explain of the rules of the game. (can be as well a message right before the timer starts with a small countdown till the begining)

The page on the current stage will require styling as well.

sound effects/music for the first page.

Perhaps thunder or an evil laugh for the click

After transformation sizes/positions can be different. Specifically the "flying" prototype monster last transformation.

Others might have it as well.

Important level redesign.

Adjust the logic and complexity of problems that will fit kids more.

First cut scene.

Once pressed on start background we get into a scene where would be explained the backstory.

-A scary road with a wizard where we meet him
-An evil wizard trapping the monster in a jail
-An automatic section showing a few problems getting solved. Once they are solved - the monster grows a bit
-Game starts

This is a task mostly for sprin 2, but is always great to be ahead.
Research assets for all game elements:
backgrounds,
monster with different phases,
SFX

Either on paper or in a wireframe program like https://balsamiq.com/ to have a more clearer idea we can use to design the functionalities, will be great if the product owner takes care of this.

While the backgrounds change - there is a white space while it loads.

A solution will be to find a way to preload all the backgrounds

Game final scene - once player finishes all challenges a final scene where he escapes/destroys the wizard

Change the go to leaderboard from game board to start a new game. Make the start a new game to work.

Add level increase pas level 5. For reference -> https://github.com/es-rene99/calculationster/wiki/006_Level-Increase-and-Bonus-levels

This will make the game easier for the player to interact with.

Now that all monster are available and transformations are there as well - will be great to add more effects and styling to them

Few possible ideas:
-Monster hurt
-SFX for transformation
-Monster messages/phrases.

Be creative

Will be need to test the game upload

A basic timer that will end the game if it runs outs.

AC: Once the timer has run out, it will throw a flag that the game should end.

Add sound effects to:

-When timer is close to finish
-When clicked on buttons
-When answered wrong
-When answer correct
-When got rewards

As well as add background game music

UI for every correct answer appear a + Seconds to the timer.

Create tip/guidelines - that will appear before new type of lvl shows.

There will be required:

For first 4 lvls:
explain how each operand works

For level 5:
Explain the order of operations.

When the explanation is on the screen the timer pauses.

Special rewards should have an effect when the player obtains it, similar to #33

This project could have Eslint configuration file already installed as well as webpack and the basic structure so that we can start coding on this base project, it will have to be done on the 1st day.

monster image is squished in final scene

Bonus level that gives simple problems during a minute. Appears after 3 numbers included.

For the project will need that all numbers that have a division won't equal into a float.

Now that simple digit works, should increase the level of difficulty after each correct 10 answers.

Now that the monster appears we will need a "transformation" effect between different forms.

A few effects can be found in research section of the discord.

hide dialogue button while text is typing out and show it when it is done. will help people follow flow of game.

• Need to update description to fit the game
• Need to decide which open source license we're going to use
• Make the project public
• Need to configure GitHub page for the project for easier viewing
  Update:
  Only pending README.md

Special rewards need to disappear once used.

Perfect case scenario it can have these additional features:

-special rewards are give after level completion perhaps with the transformation.
-Have a message from the monster aka "Now I can skip it" or "I can stop the time"
-On hover see what the item does.

If the player really likes the game he will like an option to skip the cutscene at the beginning, it could be a checkbox on the title screen.

Depends on #2 #3.
Acceptance Criterias:

AC1: The game starts with a 30 second timer. Once the clock reaches 0 - game over.

AC2: For problems solved increase 5s, this will change later.

AC3: Level increase will increase 20s ,this can be changed.

AC4: Wrong answers lose 5s of the timer.

AC5: When the timer runs out is game over.

Once the game finishes (after the game over message) the player will be redirected to the leaderboard page.

It will be a list top 20 best results and including the players result and his position at the botton(in case if he didn't get there)

Steps to achieve it:
-Style of the leaderboard page
-Player creation as an objects ( needs to be collaborated with start game page)
-Display player results

The text duplicates as it's being written, tested on Firefox.

There should be a functionality that allows problems to be randomly generated between 2 operators, the acceptance criteria is:

• The 2 operands are randomly generated from 0-9
• This addition should expect the correct answer from the user

We can keep it on console at 1st and then do it on UI, this task can be expanded.

introduce a button that skips the intro.

Message generator for wins from monster. Example of message:

"I'm getting stronger!"
"No one can stop!"
"I'll escape it!"

And etc... Anything that comes to mind

Implement the found or created asset of the monster in the game.
