Overview
I love the video game series splatoon. Splatoon 3 was recently released, and comes with a fun new mode called "Table Turf Battle". This mode is loads of fun, but you cant play it online with other people, only with computers. I feel that this would be a great game to play on a web browser.
There is no tutorial available for this project at the moment. Please check out the Blog to see my current progress.

Since I have very little experience with javascript, I have to start learning from the very basics. I am adding in one table turf card: The splat bomb
From here, I can expirememnt with drawing it on the canvas

I added in all the starter cards. I might end up going on reddit and asking folks if they can help me make all the cards, because there are so many of them.
I also added some texturs, so the game really is looking like the real thing.
I have noticed that the code im using to rotate the pieces isnt working like I intended. I will have to fix that.

I decided to use Node.js as the back end of this website. I have never used Node.js, and am still a relative beginner when it comes to Javascript in general. I watched a few tutorials, and this video series specifically helped me get started.
I am still unsure weather I should handle most operations client side or server side. Client side would result in my servers having to perform extra work, while client side calculations are more suseptible to hacking.
I also finally fixed the rotation, but the piece might randomly apphear and disapphear while being moved. Rendering issure maybe?
