As far as I've been able to stress-test, the save/load functionality of the new Shoebox framework should now function correctly!

I think that, for the most part, the Spider Solitaire is now roughly ready to go, but the Framework is barely finished at all! You can test Shoebox here. Spider Solitaire oughta be good to go.

I started drawing some little icons last night, in as simple a method as I could find.

Right, I'm probably going to ignore the audio issue, and plough ahead regardless. The audio tweaks can be made in the future. After all, this engine is 100% javascript, so everything is really easy to tweak afterwards, unlike most of my normal games that require recompiling and reuploading and then the player to realise there's an update, and redownload it.

Can you hear me!?!

For some strange reason, turning an iPhone sideways produces this..

The "Grab card from pile" and "Add card to pile" functionality now appears to be mostly functional. You can Test Shoebox Here.

Today I need to start getting the rules of Spider Solitaire to work, but as always will be looking for ways to reuse this code for all the future games.

With any luck, you should now be able to drag the cards around between columns, but with a few issues.. Shoebox Test

Just to be extra sure that it'd work in the slightest, I added a quick test loader to Shoebox for the WordList functionality.

I've added JNKsg's Multi-Loader functionality into Shoebox. You can Test it here.*

Over the next few days, I'll be doing various tests and things, as I try to determine the best methodology for the games. First up, Setting a grid size based upon a couple of values.

Taking a significant chunk of the Foldapuz/Unfolded, and JNKsg code as the basis, I've managed to get a fairly decent drawing engine up and running. Text, Ovals, Rects, Lines, Plot, and the all important DrawImg are all in, and functioning as expected, albeit without any recolouring for DrawImg. (Since I'm using basic Javascript and HTML5, I'm forfeitting the ability to recolour my sprites)

A very Platdude styled set of cards are ready to be used, but there's no game for them to go into, yet. Today will be about starting a new framework to cope with them.

Yesterday I got an email with an idea for a game. A "simple" card game that could work fairly well.

Each week, a huge influx of emails and comments and thoughts flurry into view, as @RSKGames plays the game! But RSK has competition, this week, as Spinal's joined in with some feedback, too!! You can Download Classic SpikeDislike here.

@RSKGames

Overview: Back to basics Classic Spike dislike is as enjoyable and addictive as the previous versions of the game.

I tried, yet again, to get the iOS side of my Framework to run, last night.

Everybody Likes SpikeDislike!!

Wednesday was my Mum's 60th birthday, so she spent a couple of days over with my Sister. She arrived back, yesterday, and as a surprise I decided to attempt to bake her a cake!!

Scoring is now in, along with the typical swooshy points that flail across the screen.

You might've noticed that, since yesterday, the Poetry Corner now has a little crappily designed scroll image.

In order to get SpikeDislike Classic (or is it Classic SpikeDislike?) to work as universally as I can, there's been a lot of Delta Timing tweaks, alongside a bunch of 3DS Scaling-Issue related stuff that had to be done.
