Workshop › Pac-Man-style Maze Chase › Step 34 of 42

Play again

What we are doing

Space starts a new game when the game is over; on a phone, any touch does. reset sets score, lives, level and pellets back and places everyone.

```js
  if (event.key === ' ' && state === 'over') reset()

  if (state === 'over') {
    reset()
    return
  }
```

What it means

• The key listener restarts only on Space and only after the game is over.
• In pointerup, a finished game restarts on any touch, before the swipe is even measured.

Your turn

1. In the key listener, above its last }), write the Space line.
2. In the pointerup listener, under swipeStart = null, write the restart block.
