Shoebox has been limited to a 30fps mode, simply because initial tests showed my crappy laptop to suck at trying to run it at 60fps, and the fan kicks into gear!

I added another Solitaire game to the Shoebox, last night, but it was entirely from memory, and my memory's starting to fade!!

I've spent the past hour or so tweaking the "failed to load" functionality of the ShoeBox, and I *think* I've managed to get it to fail well, although.. Honestly, I won't know for sure until something does in fact break, and unlike most scenar...

RSKGames emailed, this morning, with a log file showing what happened in his browser, when the ShoeBox collection failed to load properly.

Managed to get a little bit of coding done, today.
I've added a fairly swift anagram-finder to the word engine of Shoebox. The script can more or less search anagrams for about two sets of letters each second, so should be fairly useable once I ...

I did a few tweaks to the framework, yesterday.
There's now a mute button in the pause/escape menu, which works.. (For a few hours, it was there, but did absolutely nothing!!)

Michael emailed, late last night, to complain about the scaling on one of the games.
"No," thought I, "That should be working fine.."

It's hard to keep from breaking things when they're already live on the server.

With extreme apologies, I've just deleted everyone's highscores in Shoebox! (Don't lynch me!!)

I posted Klondike late last night, then grabbed the iPad, and settled back to play for a short while.
.. Uhoh!!

What should've been doable within a few short hours, ended up taking most of the day.

You can Play Klondike in the Shoebox of Games!

Had another "This game isn't possible" email, this morning, about the blocking of the Draw Pile in Spider Solitaire.
On the one hand, I guess I need to add a little more ingame, onscreen instructional stuff.
On the other hand.. People just...

In the upper-right of the Shoebox menu, once you've selected a game, you should now find a small "Rules" icon.

Strings is more or less functional, although it's missing different playmodes, and the scores aren't kept, but otherwise it's working!

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.

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 includ...

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.

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.
