Time for action — creating a StartNewGame method

To start a new game, we will create a new method in the game class. Follow the given steps:

  1. Add a new method called StartNewGame.
    Method StartNewGame:Int()
  2. Seed the random number generator with the current millisecond value:
    Seed = Millisecs()
  3. Reset the Score value to 0, as shown in the following code:
    Score = 0
  4. Deactivate the title layer:
    layerTitle.SetActive(False)
  5. Remove all objects from the game layer:
    layerGame.RemoveAllObjects()
  6. Create a new ball:
    CreateBall()
  7. Create a new set of tiles:
    CreateTiles()
  8. Spawn a new enemy with a random x position. This position ranges from 20 to cw-20 (the canvas width minus 20):
    SpawnEnemy(Rnd(20,cw-20))
  9. Start with a level number of 1:
    levelNum = 1
  10. Set lifes to 3:
    lifes = 3
  11. Finally, set the game mode to gmPlay, and then close the method:
    gameMode = gmPlay
Return 0
End

What just happened?

This method reset all the game variables and started a new game. It brought up the game and background layer and created the ball, the tiles, and an enemy.
