Spent the past couple of hours rewriting the audio code, so it loads the sounds after first-mouse/touch, instead of all happening right off the bat.

Since managing to completely fudge the site up, last night, I then spent a few hours whittling away at Game #2.

You can Play Shoebox of Games here Over the course of a couple of weeks, in February 2019, I began the creation of a small collection of JavaScript games. My aim is to, over the next few weeks/months, to slowly expand the number of games included in the pack, to create a lovely little collection of card games, word games, board games and more, all of which are playable within your browser.

I've added semi-persistent score handling to the Shoebox Framework, along with plenty of space to add a decent selection of scores and things into the mix. You can Test the Shoebox here!

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.

Can you hear me!?!

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

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.

I'm not 100% convinced that this will be the end style of the face cards, and still have a boatload of drawing to come, but .. For now, at least.. The PlatKing of Diamonds!

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