AI Analysis

●●SolidCozyCrowd Pleaser

Custom physics engine for marble collisions feels surprisingly tactile in a browser tab.

Strengths

•Mobile tilt controls leverage device accelerometers for intuitive aiming without touch drag.
•Vanilla JS implementation keeps the bundle size tiny compared to Unity or Phaser exports.

Weaknesses

•Single-game loop with six shots limits replayability after the novelty of the physics wears off.

Post Description

I built a small browser game inspired by Korean playground marbles—the kind of childhood game also featured in Squid Game.

Knock seven marbles out of the ring within six shots. Built with vanilla JavaScript and WebGL 2, with custom physics, mobile tilt controls, and a free-play mode.
