Alan asks..
Did you ever read up on Nandeck? even if you don't use it, it might inspire you on your own ideas as far as bulk generating cards and such.
This would be for generating things like "Monopoly Knock-off" Property cards, "Top Trum...

You know when you're at the end of the day, and do backups and things, and forget that you weren't quite yet finished doing the Player Selection Screen, but it accidentally gets uploaded anyway...?

Shoebox Highlights
Since RSKGames asked for such a thing, there's now a single quick-ish loading page, which contains tiny snippets of update news, along with links to the actual blog post that accompanies them.
I'll probably do the Fol...

I was very lucky that in my first game I did not get into any snake tiles and got the help of one ladder tile to reach near the end zone much before the AI.
Yup, this is a game 100% down to luck.
I'd like to perhaps remov...

If you're a frequent reloader of Shoebox of Games, you might've noticed the sounds of the cards being switched out, about half-a-dozen times, over the course of yesterday.

The gfx in the credits screen has a very good looking swirling ghost effect.
And what a lovely effect it is!

The credits screen of Shoebox is now much more of a credits screen again.

OK, time to replace that Credits screen. I don't like it..

I didn't even bother giving it a proper name!! You already know what this game is.

You can Play Shoebox of Games here, and you'll find Match-3 alongside Same Game, in the Extras section.

I spent most of yesterday doing some techy reading, and planning ahead for Shoebox's future.

Not really sure where yesterday's Strings game came from! I wasn't expecting to code anything at all, but I think my Sunday Day-Off left me clambering to code something.

You can Play Shoebox of Games here. You'll find Word Tubes amongst the Word games.

Played a few times and managed to beat the AI half the times. Only weird thing I noticed is that when player wins sometimes both the orange and some blue pieces nearby seem to animate.
Indeed. The flashing is done by the AI. Wher...

The "Four in-a Row" AL has been upgraded a little, this morning.
It's not "Evil", and can still be beaten every other game, but it's making less mistakes than it was, earlier.
Not a complete rewrite of the AI, but a fairly significant r...
