CYBER SMASH – Zero-Dependency Browser Game Built in One HTML File
Overview A fast, playful arcade game that runs instantly in any browser: no install, no loading screen, no external libraries. Players smash a truck against a 40-second clock using punches, kicks and unique special moves.
What I delivered • Complete game loop: title, character select, gameplay, results and retry • Six original comedic fighters, each with a distinct special move • Progressive damage system with four visual stages • Game feel polish: screen shake, hit freeze, comic text effects and score bonuses • Keyboard controls, mute toggle and responsive canvas scaling
Technical highlights • 100% vanilla JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas • No images, sprites, fonts or libraries: every visual is drawn in code • All sound effects synthesized live with the Web Audio API • Single-file deliverable, deployed free on GitHub Pages • Built with an AI-assisted workflow (Claude Code) for fast iteration, with me directing design, scope and quality
Play it: https://fsystemweb.github.io/cybersmash/ Code: https://github.com/fsystemweb/cybersmash
Skills: JavaScript, HTML5 Canvas, Web Audio API, Game Development, Front-End Development, Rapid Prototyping, Claude Code
