Mini Tapper is a Javascript "mini" remake of the well known Root Beer Tapper by Bally Midway. It only features the first level but with a slightly different gameplay more like a "survival mode", as here the goal is to serve your beloved customers as long as possible, with the difficulty (top rigth counter) increasing over the time, and more and more customers entering the bar ! And of course, you also have to catch the empty mugs and maybe grab some tips if you can.

This is my first game in Javascript (even my first time using Javascript) and I mainly developed this game as a learning exercise for the new HTML5 Canva Element, and everything is pure HMTL5 including for the audio part. And although I could have done it better, I feel satisfied and most of all : I had so so so much fun doing it :)
I Also take the opportunity to thank my friend Gil megidish, for showing me the way of HMTL5, as without him I would still be compiling my games :)

A recent browser (fully supporting HTML5) is of course highly recommended to fully enjoy the game.

I hope you'll like it, and that it will bring all that retro fun back to your memory :)

---==[ Instructions ]==---
Use arrow keys to move the barman,
Hold "Space" bar to fill a mug, and release when full to serve !

Collect all the empty mugs, and perhaps some tips for extra points.

    Known Issues / Todo list :
    ----------------------
    - difficulty is not really linear
    - some animations are missing (e.g. customers reaching the end of a row, emptying glass, etc..)
    - no fallback for sounds (only use mp3) 
    - sound is laggy under Safari due to systematic reload of the mp3 when cloneNode is called
    - preloader is not always... preloading !
