-# Final Project
-*Due October 13th (final day of the term)*
 
-For your final project, you'll implement a web application that exhibits understanding of the course materials. 
-This project should provide an opportunity to both be creative and to pursue individual research and learning goals.
+Hosting Link: https://catclicker-p5.glitch.me
 
-## General description
-Your project should consist of a complete Web application, exhibiting facets of the three main sections of the course material:
+# A brief description of what you created, and a link to the project itself (two paragraphs of text)
+Cat Clicker is an idle clicker that dynamically responds to user input with sprite animations and a score that is stored in an online server. The score increased via a rate that can be bought with score points. The player can login to the webpage, which allows them to play the game and save their score. Once logged in, they can start playing right where they left off by loading their associated game data from the database.
 
-- Static web page content and design. You should have a project that is accessible, easily navigable, and features significant content.
-- Dynamic behavior implemented with JavaScript (TypeScript is also allowed if your group wants to explore it).
-- Server-side programming *using Node.js*. Typically this will take the form of some sort of persistent data (database), authentication, and possibly server-side computation. 
-- A video (less than five minutes) where each group member explains some aspect of the project. An easy way to produce this video is for you all the groups members to join a Zoom call that is recorded; each member can share their screen when they discuss the project or one member can "drive" the interface while other members narrate (this second option will probably work better.) The video should be posted on YouTube or some other accessible video hosting service. Make sure your video is less than five minutes, but long enough to successfully  explain your project and show it in action. There is no minimum video length.
+#. Any additional instructions that might be needed to fully use your project (login information etc.)
+Our default login is admin/admin, but you can create any account you want. We also noticed that the speed of the game varies depends a lot depending on the hardware of the machine, so try to test it on a fast machine if you can. 
 
-## Project ideation
-Excellent projects typically serve someone/some group; for this assignment you need to define your users and stakeholders. I encourage you to identify projects that will have impact, either artistically, politically, or in terms of productivity. 
+# An outline of the technologies you used and how you used them.
+We used Javascript and Node, as well as MongoDB to access and interact with a online server to store our player’s data. We also used Phaser which is a mobile and desktop html game framework. 
 
-### Deliverables
+# What challenges you faced in completing the project.
+Learning how to use Phaser.js in our program was difficult as none of us had used it before. We’re also all seniors working on our MQPs, so it was hard to find time to schedule meetings and work on the project. 
 
-#### Form Team (due 9/25)
-Students are will work in teams of 3-5 students for the project; teams of two can be approved with the permission of the instructor. Working in teams should help enable you to build a good project in a limited amount of time.  Use the `#project-logistics` channel in Discord to pitch ideas for final projects and/or find fellow team members as needed.
+# What each group member was responsible for designing / developing.
+Tate - Login functionality, hooked up the mongodb database, and developed backend
+Ryan - Graphics + sprite animations, backend hookups to buttons 
+Alex - Game implementation in phaser, gameplay, controls
 
-Teams must be in place by end of day on Sunday, September 25th. If you have not identified a team at this point, you will be assigned a team. You will be given some class time on Monday to work on your proposal, but please plan on reserving additional time outside of class as needed.
-
-#### Proposal (due 9/27) 
-Provide an outline of your project direction and the names of associated team members. 
-The outline should have enough detail so that staff can determine if it meets the minimum expectations, or if it goes too far to be reasonable by the deadline. Please include a general description of a project, and list of key technologies/libraries you plan on using (e.g. React, Three.js, Svelte, TypeScript etc.). Two to four paragraps should provide enough level of detail. Name the file proposal.md and submit a pull request by Tuesday, September 27th at 11:59 PM (end of day). Only one pull request is required per team.
-
-There are no other scheduled checkpoints for your project. 
-
-#### Turning in Your Project
-Submit a second PR on the final project repo to turn in your app and code. Again, only one pull request per team.
-
-Deploy your app, in the form of a webpage, to Glitch/Heroku/Digital Ocean or some other service; it is critical that the application functions correctly wherever you post it.
-
-The README for your second pull request doesn’t need to be a formal report, but it should contain:
-
-1. A brief description of what you created, and a link to the project itself (two paragraphs of text)
-2. Any additional instructions that might be needed to fully use your project (login information etc.)
-3. An outline of the technologies you used and how you used them.
-4. What challenges you faced in completing the project.
-5. What each group member was responsible for designing / developing.
-6. A link to your project video.
-
-Think of 1,3, and 4 in particular in a similar vein to the design / tech achievements for A1—A4… make a case for why what you did was challenging and why your implementation deserves a grade of 100%.

-## FAQs
-
-- **Can I use XYZ framework?** You can use any web-based frameworks or tools available, but for your server programming you need to use Node.js. Your client-side scripting language should be either JavaScript or TypeScript.
