It's actually not a predefined pool of videos but rather specific search queries depending on the topic.
To be more precise, when you click on a topic I randomly select a search query containing some keywords among a list for that given topic. I then make an API call using the search endpoint and provide that query. The resulting videos are then used to make the game. So depending on when you play the game the videos selected can be different.
I also made a tutorial video for this project. I go over how to build this exact game step by step here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UHM-4Ub7F4
I used the kaboomjs library which is pretty easy to use.
My game is called HARVEST MOVE and it's a grid based movement game where you have to harvest as many plants as possible without getting killed by various animals.
It's a puzzle game disguised as an arcade game.
The game is still in development but I've started posting gifs, screenshots and some art of the game already on Twitter.
