After each week's release, players submit their thoughts on the games. Let's have a look and see what @RSKGames thought of Space Battle! You can Play Space Battle in the One-On-One section of the Shoebox.

@RSKGames

Played Space battles for some time and thanks to a lenient AI I was able to win most of the times.

An epic battle begins. Blast away your opponent's spaceships, before they do, yours! Place your ships in the grid, then try to guess where your opponent's ships are placed. You can Play Space Battle in the One-On-One section of the Shoebox.

There's rain outside. \o/yeay\o/ That means I should be able to code, today!!

It's gotten a teensy bit cooler, tonight, and I've been able to get some coding done! The "ingame GUI" for Space Battle isn't looking awful... And that's as good as you're going to get I might fix up that explosion graphic to make it a bit more "Stand out'y", but otherwise things are definitely a bit more playable. I've added "double tap" to the controls, like with Atoms. I think that's probably the best bet when dealing with t...

I've done an alarming amount of work on this GUI today, and .. *shrugs* Doesn't look any bloomin' different to how it did, this morning!!

As per @RSKGames' suggestion, I've added a couple of Swap mechanics to Tower solitaire. You can swap any free cards in the tower, but only when they're on the same row. You can also swap the topmost card amongst the dealt piles, too. There's not a LOT of things you can swap, but hopefully it should be enough to make things a little bit easier in the 5 and 6 tower modes. You can Play Tower Solitaire in the Card Games section of the Shoebox.

As the collection grows ever onwards, people send feedback for the various oddities that I create. You can Play Tower Solitaire in the Shoebox, under the Card Games.

@RSKGames says..

For regular Solitaire players this version might need some time to get used to as the card that is required to build the tower is not one less or one more of the cards in stack but follows a simple rule. Yeah, it's a slightly different strategy, but it makes things a lot tougher when you end up with a v...

A new Solitaire card game, today. The aim is to try to reach the top of the tower by matching cards. You can Play Tower Solitaire in the card games of Shoebox.

I woke up with a Solitaire game in my head.. As you do! Figured I'd code it, and see how it turned out, and .. Yeah, it's quite playable! Currently near-impossible, but I think having a "Swap Pile" should help that quite a bit. Basic rules. You can place Same Suit/Value card atop each other in the pyramid. If a card matches the Suit/Value of both of the two adjacent cards, you may place the card in the row above. (eg, if you have a 2 of hearts in your hand, and the two cards below are a ...

After each release, or thereabouts because it's getting hard for even me to keep up, we get a little bit of feedback for the games. If you'd like to join in, you can either use the Comments section, Email me, or send a Tweet. You can Play Atoms in the ShoeBox. It's in the "Group Games" section.

@RSKGames says..

Played 3 times and lost the first time and won the second and third time. First time I lost after my very first move. LOL! Poor @RSKGames!

The classic explosive game of popping atoms is finally in the Shoebox! You can Find Atoms in the Group Games section.

I was flicking through my Shoebox Todo-List, today, and stumbled upon Atoms. I haven't attempted Atoms for a while, mostly because it requires me to draw all those Atoms!! But, today I drew them, and the engine seems fairly capable. (ignore the fact that half those positions aren't "real", it's just a crazy animating thing, right now!)

It's nothing too tricky, and you won't struggle to play it. The simple classic game of Hangman. Tap the letters, fill in the blanks, and try to guess the words or phrase. You can Play Hangman in the Shoebox where you'll find it in amongst the Word Games.

Brum Brum?

1. Finish off Flappadiddle on PetitSwitch 2. Finish off Hangman on Shoebox 3. Consider that combining things into one has gone so well on Shoebox that it might be a good idea to start doing that with my PetitSwitch games. 4. Consider that I should probably also do that with AGameAWeek "proper" 5. Wonder how that's going to impact my lovely "500,000 games" list. 6. Goto 3

We all know what happens if I leave a game for a week.. I find it very hard to get myself back into the swing of things. I need something a little more immediate to pop into the Shoebox, because.. at this rate.. it'll be mid July before The Quest is ready!! "Oh, I know," says my silly head, "what about Hangman?"

Don't worry, I didn't completely abandon the Shoebox!!

After a LOT of edit/undo, copy/paste, delete/delete work, I think I've found a style of graphics that works for the furniture of the game.

Today will be about redrawing furniture to suit the slightly new style of The Quest, or rather so all the furniture doesn't look oddly out of place!

2005 was a long long time ago, so the Quest-Qrew have been given a slight makeover.

Geeze, these are old!!

As I plough ahead without too much of a plan, I'm having to make a lot of quick decisions along the way.

Heavy decade-old Sprite Reuse, ahoy! Those doors look dumb.. I really need to rethink how I'm going to draw the doors. Hmmm. However, it doesn't look "awful", and I think that's ok! I'll probably spend the next few days trying to get "just" the right style for the doors. Big enough that it looks like a nice big door, but small enough that it doesn't overlap the players when they're on the square "behind" the door. Tricky to get these things just right, and I might yet wimp...
