Are you ready to experience the thrill of a Doodle Jump-like game, entirely built within Excel? Yes, you read that right—this game has been crafted using only Excel VBA and powerful formulas, proving that Excel isn’t just for spreadsheets! In this game, players jump between platforms, avoid enemies, and aim to reach new heights while tracking their high scores.
Key Features of the Excel Doodle Jump Like Game:
- Automatic Jumping Mechanism: The player character automatically jumps from one platform to another, with gravity and physics in play.
- Enemy Patrols: Just like in classic platformers, avoid patrolling enemies as you move up the game map!
- Screen Scrolling: As you ascend, the game map scrolls dynamically to keep the action front and center.
- Real-Time Score Tracking: Track your progress and aim for the top of the leaderboard with each jump.
- Fully Programmed in VBA: All game mechanics, from jumping and gravity to patrolling enemies, are controlled through Excel’s VBA.
Why Excel? Excel is a versatile tool, and while most people use it for data and business, it also offers a unique platform for creative projects like game development. With VBA, Excel’s programming language, users can automate tasks and create fully functional programs—like this game! The seamless integration of Excel formulas and VBA allows for game logic that replicates traditional programming environments, yet remains within the comfort of Excel.
