You better post the link or attachment as code will be to long. Clearly state which part you do not understand and we may try to help you. Question of this type doesn't help "how do we make codings to make a game"

Java is an Object Oriented Programming (OOP) language created by James Gosling of Sun Microsystems. JavaScript was created by Netscape.
The main difference is that Java can stand on its own while JavaScript must be placed inside an HTML document to function. Java is a much larger and more complicated language that creates "standalone" applications. A Java "applet" (so-called because it is a little application) is a fully contained program. JavaScript is text that is fed into a browser that can read it and then is enacted by the browser.

There is many other thigs which put them appart.

So if you want to create game s in Java you should start to learn the language, but it will moths if not years before you will be able to create something fully functional. Everything depends on you and your interest...

Not necessarily. Javascript is a full-fledged scripting language which is very much capable of standing on its own feet. Read this and this.
