JavaScript basic clicker game code example

Example: JavaScript basic clicker game

//Basic variables (the currency in this example is lemons)
var incrementInterval = 10 //This is done so the code in the setInterval function runs 10 times per second
var lemons = 0.0
var lemonsPerClick = 1.0
var lemonsPerIncrement = 0.0

//Function for clicking to get lemons
function addLemons() {
	lemons += lemonsPerClick
	updateLemons()
}

//Function for updating the lemon counter
function updateLemons() {
	document.getElementById("lemonCounter").innerHTML = `Lemons: ${Math.floor(lemons)}`
}

//Function that returns the target's value if it were to be divided into 1 second relative to milleseconds
function incrementValue(target) {
	return target / (1000 / (incrementInterval * 10)) //Target divided by one second
}

//Function that runs the following code repeatedly (function, milleseconds before running again)
setInterval(function() {
	lemons += incrementValue(lemonsPerIncrement)
	updateLemons()
}, incrementInterval * 10)
