I don't get it. The GitHub byline proclaims, "Learn AngularJS playing Super Mario Brothers". So I wondered if this would be yet another browser implementation of Mario, this time using AngularJS in some fashion? Or perhaps it would be like "vim-adventures.com", where you learn Vim editor commands by using them to play a video game?
It's neither. This seems to be nothing more than a very primitive PowerPoint slide deck, with slide transitions activated as you progress through an unrelated video game. The "Mario" hook is meaningless clickbait.
Moreover, this will almost certainly receive a DMCA takedown within the next couple of days. It seems buggy to boot... stomping on the first turtle brought up slides, and no keypress closes the slides and returns to the game.
- orbitur 12y agoUse the right arrow to go through the slides. Each enemy has between 1 and 3 it seems.
- pyre 12y agoYou can also use <space> to go forward and <shift>-<space> to go backwards through the slides.
- hackmiester 12y agoI am not sure how I am supposed to figure this out by looking at the app. Also, I am using the browser's "back" button to close the slide and continue playing because I don't know how to do it. I guess I do not understand what is going on.
- click170 12y agoIt's not just you, I'm in the same boat. I'm not sure if I was doing something wrong but once I jumped on an enemy I couldn't do anything except click a link in the in-game popup. The arrow keys and spacebar didn't do anything at that point, I had to reload.
