    WE'VE HIRED SOMEONE FOR THIS THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST

    Site is simple javascript.

    Need to add a timer to the page.


    The timer would appear on the page, and would start as soon as the user uses their arrow keys/ begins the maze.

    Once the user gets to the exit, the timer would stop and the page is redirected.

    On the new page it says the user's time and allows them to post their time on Facebook.

    How I think this would need to be done

    The hardest part is sharing the score on Facebook without allowing the user to change the score. If you simply use a Facebook share button to post the finished-time page, the user has control to change the title and description.

    Solutions

    1. You would have to generate a thumbnail image for the finished-time page that has the user's time on it. That way when the user presses the Facebook share button, he can't claim he scored a different time because he can't modify the thumbnail.

    2. We would have to create a simple Facebook App. When the user gets to walkthemaze.com they would be asked to login to the application to play. Once they finish, they would have the option to push the status update to the wall with their time and through the Facebook app they can't modify the text. This is probably the ideal solution.
