What a happy title for a card game!! Fairly complex rules ahead, but it's actually really simple once you get the hang of it. Your aim in this game is to remove all "Pay off" cards from your side of the table. (They're the cards on the bottom left) To do so, move cards onto the Center Piles (the three in the middle), starting from Ace and moving up to Queen. These can be of any suit, and if you place a King, it acts as a wildcard, becoming the next number in the sequence. You can move car...

As with last week's Shoebox game, I actually uploaded it about mid-day, yesterday, but haven't yet officially posted about it. If you're the nosey sort, keep an eye on Shoebox on a Friday, and you might catch a glimpse of the next game, before it's properly finished. I first wanted to double check everything, and that's best done on the iPad, whilst sat riding my little foot-pedal-doohickey. Top Tip : Get in shape by forcing yourself to exercise whilst you're doing all of th...

Crikey, this is a bit messy!

RSKGames returns with his thoughts on recent games. You can Play Shoebox of Games here, which are all Mouse/Touch controlled games, which run 100% in the browser. Or you can Play Browsercade here, which are all Keyboard/Gamepad controlled games, for a more Arcade-like experience, but which also run in your browser.

: The main menu or Homepage looks fantastic with each game having the name at the top in their own game themes.

A nice and gentle game of MiniGolf. Putt your way around, and aim for the hole. Bonus points can be gained, but watch out for the water! You can Play MiniGolf in the Misc area of the Shoebox.

If you refreshed Shoebox, yesterday, you'll have been able to play MiniGolf, but I didn't officially release it.

The Minigolf game's quite fun to play, so far, and today I'm going to try to add a couple more obstacles. I'm thinking a giant spinning stick that thwacks the ball if it's within the radius, and maybe adding some directional floor tiles that act a little like slopes.

It's Checkers! It's not a hard game, and AL's a bit daft (as per usual) but it's Checkers! Jump over your opponent's pieces, diagonally, until there's nothing left but your own. You can Play Checkers in the One on One area of the Shoebox

Line up all 9 cards inside the grid so that each row and column add up to 21. The game uses Pontoon/Blackjack scoring rules, so Jacks, Queens and Kings are each worth 10, and Aces can count as either 1 or 11. You can Play Pontoon Grid in the Shoebox under the Misc games.

The fact that the die is white at the beginning of your turn, and also white after you roll makes it unclear at a glance whether the die's current value is your actual move. Not sure what the solution is. Maybe dimming the die or displaying question marks on its faces in pre-roll mode, and the normal white with pips in post-roll mode? A valid point. The "Popomatic" function has a "Locked/Unlocked" value, so I can use that to decide when to draw v1 or v2. I'll have a pl...

As I was drifting off to sleep, my mind was racing for a decent Foldapuz concept for the week. I thought about cards, and considered a grid of 5x5 cards.

After I release more and more games, player's try desperately to keep up! Let's see what RSKGames thinks of today's Shoebox addition. You can Play Grid of Conquest in the Shoebox, under the Group Games section.

@RSKGames

''Grid of Conquest'' immediately reminded me of ''Might of the Balls'' which was incidentally made almost on a similar date last year ''23rd July, 2018''. Oh yeah! I'd actually forgotten about that game.

Try to fill up as much of the board in your colour as you can. Normally you can't move over opponent's tiles, but if you earn a 6, you're allowed to move wherever you'd like. There are additional green spots on the board. Reach these for a couple of extra points. You can Play Grid of Conquest in the Shoebox of Games under the Group Games section.

This project was titled "Power Source" when I started it, but the name doesn't fit the end result, so I'm going to have to change it.

I don't think I'll be getting "Game with balls" up and running within the next day-and-a-half or so, so instead, I'll make something completely different!! But what game to make?

Yesterday I was playing with Alien sprites. Today, I've been playing with Balls! First off, don't get too excited! This is currently only a simple physics test, and is in no way representative of the end result! I'm actually aiming for a completely different game, first, but figured I might as well test the physics whilst I'm here. So far, so good, although the physics are occasionally a little bit glitchy. But.. .. Yeah, works fine!!

Blackjack, Pontoon, 21. Call it what you will. The aim is to reach as close as you can to 21, without going over. Once you're done, AL will have a try, and whoever gets closest is the winner. The first to reach three wins is declared the overall winner of the game. You can Play Blackjack in the Card Games section of the Shoebox.

I honestly can't fathom why Firefox's cache isn't doing what it's supposed to.

It's the little things.. Like how the game isn't saving highscores, and the onscreen scores aren't quite readable enough, and the music doesn't end during the game-over screen, and .. The little things.. Still haven't actually coded the game, yet, either! This is all Framework stuff. Of course.. There's still one big issue to tackle..

As each game is released, players like RSKGames and <insert name here> send oodles of feedback for about the game. Let's see how they all thought about Dots and Squares! You can Play Dots and Squares in the Shoebox in the One on One section.

@RSKGames

Playing in the mobile, I find that sometimes I connect the wrong dots but in PC with mouse it works fine.

The good old game that you used to secretly play at the back of the classroom! You can Play Dots and Squares in the Shoebox, in the One On One area.
