Guess the Movie v1.2 - Dark Theme!

Hi, guys! The last three days have been busy. I wanted to make a dark theme for the website using neon light. I didn't like the main page of the site either. I present all the edits in this article.

Added a menu at the bottom and put the music, contacts and login/registration icons together. I discovered the property css transition also. With it, you can make animations.

I took the logic of the menu here.

Change the language slightly moved to the top left.

Do you see blue neon border? So I used this snippet

The most delicious - neon lettering Guess the Movie. Font - Good Vibes Pro. (it also supports Cyrillic). But how do you make flicker and backlight?

I recommend following the link , there are a few more ready-made examples that you just need to copy and paste!

Okay, but where can I get old-fashioned photographs? They can be done pretty quickly in Photoshop. Here's a super helpful tutorial.

Let's admit. How to make a slider effect? Everything is simple here too. Here's snippet.

But please note that the initial picture in the code is repeated from the last one. I did not immediately understand this =)

The Play button is blinking. The flicker effect took from here.

This task was not easy, unfortunately. Therefore, I will give the code.

First, I took svg and in Adobe Illustrator added the necessary blue shadows. In the same place, I assigned a name to each layer: circle and triangle

This is important because I will have to assign a different blink rate to each layer! I pasted this code directly into svg (look code snippet mentioned above).

@keyframes flicker1 {
    0% {
        opacity: 1;
    }
    3% {
        opacity: 0.4;
    }
    6% {
        opacity: 1;
    }
    7% {
        opacity: 0.4;
    }
    8% {
        opacity: 1;
    }
    9% {
        opacity: 0.4;
    }
    10% {
        opacity: 1;
    }
    100% {
        opacity: 1;
    }
}
#circle {
    animation: flicker1 6s infinite step-end;
    transition: 0.70s;
    -webkit-transition: 0.70s;
    -moz-transition: 0.70s;
    -ms-transition: 0.70s;
    -o-transition: 0.70s;
}
#triangle {
    animation: flicker1 5s infinite 3s step-end;
}

Changed the background to black and made the text white. When hovering over the text, I made a highlight.

.all_podborki_single:hover .all_podborki_single_title_deeper .title_title {
    --interval: 1s;
    text-shadow: 0 0 10px var(--color1), 0 0 20px var(--color2), 0 0 40px var(--color3), 0 0 80px var(--color4);
    filter: saturate(60%);
    color: azure;
    --color1: azure;
    --color2: aqua;
    --color3: dodgerblue;
    --color4: blue;
}

Another fix, in my opinion, to improve the user experience of the game. Less text and numbers, more visuals. I removed the seconds counter and score. (The score is calculated by the number of guessing frames by the user. It is not needed here. ) Instead, there is a progress bar now.

css code

.seconds_progress_bar {
    position: absolute;
    height: 2rem;
    bottom: 0.45rem;
    display: block;
    border-radius: 0.3rem;
    -o-transition: all 15s cubic-bezier(0.48, 0.49, 0.47, 0.49);
    -moz-transition: all 15s cubic-bezier(0.48, 0.49, 0.47, 0.49);
    -webkit-transition: all 15s cubic-bezier(0.48, 0.49, 0.47, 0.49);
    transition: all 15s cubic-bezier(0.48, 0.49, 0.47, 0.49);
    background-color: #15c4fd6b;
    width: calc(100%);
    right: 0;
}


.empty_progress_bar {
    width: calc(0.1%);
    background-color: #fe2131;
}

and jquery, marked * with new lines

    function timer_go() {
        seconds = 15;
        $('.seconds_progress_bar').replaceWith($('<span class="tmp_thing"></span>')) //*
        $('.tmp_thing').replaceWith($('<div class="seconds_progress_bar"></div>')) //*
        setTimeout(() => refresh_progress_bar(), 100); //*
        timer_func = setInterval(function () {
            --seconds;
            if (seconds == 0) {
                clear_input_proposes();
                hide_other_blocks();
                show_block('.your_score');
                get_last_film();
            }
        }, 1000);
    }

    // refresh progress bar  //*
    function refresh_progress_bar() { //*
        let seconds_progress_bar = $('.seconds_progress_bar') //*
        seconds_progress_bar.addClass("empty_progress_bar") //*
    }

As you can see, these 2 lines are do not make sense at first sight.

$('.seconds_progress_bar').replaceWith($('<span class="tmp_thing"></span>'))
$('.tmp_thing').replaceWith($('<div class="seconds_progress_bar"></div>')) 

I need them to update the item .seconds_progress_bar. Otherwise, the progress bar is executed only once.


I guess that's all =) I hope the material was helpful and useful to someone! Also ask questions, and share your projects! It's would be interesting and informative.
