# Scrolling - Scavenger Hunt

Screenshot of the Scavenger Hunt scrolling game. The interface shows a bright sky scene with white clouds, green triangular trees, a yellow sun, and pink birds. At the top of the screen is a dark header with the text 'Can you find this?' next to a glowing yellow sun (the current item to find). The right side of the header displays 'Found items: 7' and 'Time remaining: 00:21'. The player needs to scroll to locate the highlighted item in this colorful, layered environment.

The goal of Scavenger Hunt (opens new window) is to find specific objects by scrolling through different environments. The game presents items to find, and players must scroll up and down to locate them in the space, sky, ground, or underground sections.

# Customize

You can customize various game settings by adding parameters to the end of the URL.

The easiest approach is to use the link generator (opens new window) to create your URL. Customize the parameters on the form, click "Share link", and copy the generated URL to play the game with your settings.

# Build URL manually

You can also manually customize the URL by adding various parameters to the end after a #.

Each setting is specified in the format settingName=settingValue. For example, you could append timeLimit=120 to set the time limit to 120 seconds:

https://mouse.techlit.tools/scroll#timeLimit=120

Separate multiple parameters with an &. For example, this URL changes the time limit and disables arrow key scrolling:

https://mouse.techlit.tools/scroll#timeLimit=120&disableArrowKeys=true

Below is a list of all available parameters. If you leave a parameter off of the URL, the game will use the default value.

Setting name Type Description Default value
timeLimit number Game time limit in seconds 60
showPlayAgain boolean Show the player a "play again" button after the game ends false
useSound boolean Play sound effects during gameplay true
disableArrowKeys boolean Prevent arrow keys from being used for scrolling false
disableTouchScreen boolean Prevent touch screen interactions false
