Workshop › Angry Birds-style Slingshot › Step 47 of 47

Build it yourself: the yellow bird

What we are doing

Your game, your rules. Make the birds yellow speedsters: once during each flight, Space or a tap makes the bird fly twice as fast.

Your turn

• The bird's color becomes yellow, '#facc15'.
• While a bird is flying, Space doubles its vx and vy, only once per bird.
• A tap (pointer down on the canvas) during the flight does the same.
• Space still launches while aiming and starts again after the end.
