The gap
Bowling needs believable pin action, a ball that hooks for a reason, and scoring rules that are easy to get wrong in the 10th frame.
Game templates
The complete source of Pinmarsh, a ten-pin bowling game with circle-based pin physics, spin, oil patterns and a five-alley tour; the smoke test proves a bot bowls a full 10-frame game.

The gap
Bowling needs believable pin action, a ball that hooks for a reason, and scoring rules that are easy to get wrong in the 10th frame.
What it is
This template gives you pin physics, an oil-driven hook model, tested scoring and a polished touch-ready throw interface.
How you use it
Unzip, serve the folder and open index.html, then edit game.js; npm test plays it again in headless Chrome.
Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with a smoke test whose bot plays it.
Use it when
Built for
Each alley in ALLEYS sets oil length and crown; dryness(x, y) turns that into the grip that lets spin hook the ball.
frameScores and frameMarks read the plain list of pins per roll, so the score sheet and the tour logic share one source.
Plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D with no runtime dependencies; open index.html through any static server and edit game.js.
A headless Chrome test loads the game, checks the console, presses keys and taps, and lets the built-in bot play a run to its result screen.
