Customizing the Game

You can customize the game by adjusting the parameters passed to the generateField function in the index.js file.

• The first parameter is the height of the field
• The second parameter is the width of the field
• The third parameter is the percentage of holes in the field
• The fourth parameter is an integer value to add holes after each move (hard mode) (0 for easy mode)
