Summary of Changes

Hello @cs-util, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces the initial playable prototype for 'Math Marauders,' a wave-based runner game. It establishes a highly modular and extensible architecture, separating concerns into distinct systems for core game logic, user interface, data handling, and analytics. The changes include a fully functional HTML front-end for player interaction and a comprehensive suite of development tools to ensure code quality and maintainability from the outset.

Highlights

  • Core Game Prototype Implemented: The foundational 'Math Marauders' game prototype has been implemented, including its interactive HUD, controls, and wave completion popup, all integrated within 'index.html'.
  • Modular Game Systems Introduced: A new modular architecture has been established, featuring dedicated systems for wave generation, battle mechanics, UI management, data persistence, and telemetry, promoting extensibility and maintainability.
  • Comprehensive Testing and Linting Setup: A robust development environment is now in place with configurations for unit tests (Jest), code linting (ESLint), code duplication checks (jscpd), and mutation testing (Stryker) to ensure high code quality.

Code Review

This pull request lays a strong foundation for the Math Marauders game by implementing the core modular systems for gameplay, UI, and persistence. The code is well-structured, leveraging modern JavaScript features and good practices like dependency injection. I've identified a critical issue in the main game loop where events don't fire in the correct sequence, a high-severity bug in the scoring logic, and a couple of medium-severity items related to test correctness and CSS practices. My detailed comments include code suggestions to address these points. Overall, this is an excellent start to the project.

critical

There's a critical logic issue in how game phases are processed. Both processForwardPhase and processRetreatPhase first complete all gate interactions via gateSystem.processGates, and only then iterate through the history to trigger subsequent events (skirmishes or surges). According to the README.md, these events should happen immediately after each gate is cleared.

This implementation means that skirmishes in the forward phase don't use the player's army count as it changes from gate to gate, and surges in the retreat phase are not triggered in real-time.

To fix this, you should refactor these processing loops in GameController to handle one gate at a time, update the flockSystem, and then trigger the associated event immediately within the loop before proceeding to the next gate. This might involve moving the gate processing loop from GateSystem into GameController.

high

The star calculation logic doesn't align with the percentages specified in README.md. For example, a ratio of 0.4 (40%) should result in 1 star, but the current code returns 2 stars because of ratio >= threshold.

The README specifies ranges like 0-40% for 1 star and 41-60% for 2 stars. A clearer and more correct implementation would use a series of if statements to handle these ranges correctly.

export function calculateStars(actual, optimal) {
  if (optimal <= 0) {
    return 0;
  }
  const ratio = actual / optimal;
  if (ratio > 0.9) return 5;
  if (ratio > 0.75) return 4;
  if (ratio > 0.6) return 3;
  if (ratio > 0.4) return 2;
  return 1;
}

This div uses an inline style attribute. It's better to move these styles into a CSS class in the <style> block to improve maintainability and separate concerns. This also makes the styling more reusable.

You can add a class like popup__actions to the div and define the styles in the <style> block:

.popup__actions {
  display: flex;
  gap: 0.5rem;
  justify-content: center;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}
          <div class="popup__actions">
            <button id="popup-next">Next Wave</button>
            <button id="popup-retry">Retry</button>
          </div>

medium

These tests validate the current scoring logic, which has a bug regarding boundary values. Once you fix calculateStars, these tests will fail. They should be updated to reflect the correct scoring behavior as per the README.md, checking the boundaries of each star rating.

  test("assigns correct thresholds", () => {
    expect(calculateStars(40, 100)).toBe(1);
    expect(calculateStars(41, 100)).toBe(2);
    expect(calculateStars(60, 100)).toBe(2);
    expect(calculateStars(61, 100)).toBe(3);
    expect(calculateStars(75, 100)).toBe(3);
    expect(calculateStars(76, 100)).toBe(4);
    expect(calculateStars(90, 100)).toBe(4);
    expect(calculateStars(91, 100)).toBe(5);
  });

P1 Badge Incorporate gate outcomes when applying skirmish damage

During the forward phase the loop over result.history only calls battleSystem.resolveSkirmish(enemy) and never applies the gate result (entry.after) to the flock before the skirmish or adjusts the returned finalCount. The retreat phase later seeds processRetreatPhase with forwardResult.finalCount, which is still the value produced by the gate math and ignores all skirmish casualties. This means enemy encounters can never reduce the survivor total or cause a wave failure—the player always proceeds with the unmodified gate result regardless of losses shown in the UI. Consider updating the flock and the forward result with the actual gate outcomes before each skirmish so casualties meaningfully affect success.
