Crikey, this ain't easy! But AL's slowly getting "better", in a "Not exactly more intelligent, but at least not murdering my fan!" sort of way. I need to get him to play with his letters a little better, though. He currently plonks tiny little 2-letter words down, when his rack has a really obvious word in it. .. But.. Yeah, getting there!!

AL's getting slightly better, but is currently only attempting about 2 word placements per frame.

I've just had a fairly decent game against AL. His AI's not quite up to much, but he is at least managing to play along.

Attempt number one hasn't gone particularly well. The game struggles to keep up with itself, and my laptop's fan kicks into overdrive, while the game just about manages to find the word "AA" in amongst all the possibilities!

You know when you spend hours working on something, then look back at what you've done, and go "What on earth did I actually do?" .. I did that, yesterday!

When I was playing Golf Solitaire in my android chrome browser found an odd issue where the drag and drop card gets placed in the top left of the screen as seen in the attached screenshot.

Crikey! This game's harder to code than I remembered.

A couple of days ago, cooolgamer uploaded a bunch more levels for JNKPlat. There are (IIRC) 6 new packs of levels, so oodles to play through. Hopefully there's nothing "too" hard, but unfortunately I haven't actually had any time to even play the things yet. AGameAWeek is relentless You can either download them in-game, or head over to The Level Archive to download the level file yourself.

Board Layouts.. Not easy! But the main ones are in, now. Regular Scrabble, Super Scrabble, Words With Friends, and there's also the option for random layouts, so that's nice!! More to come..

I think it's probably about time that I get "Generic unbranded crossword game" into the Shoebox..

Me and Michael Fernie have been emailing back and forth, today, all about the recent Shoebox additions, and player feedback. Lots of new games added to Shoebox. Very nice. Seems like you are getting a bunch of comments too. That is exciting because people are playing. Indeed. Unlike my previous 400 games, these ones actually seem to be popular!! I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing!

Golf Solitaire isn't nearly as bad as Beleaguered Castle Solitaire! You can Play Golf Solitaire here in the Card Games section of the Shoebox.

I spent a good number of hours, yesterday, looking online for any rulesets that might make "Beleaguered Castle Solitaire" any better, but failed miserably to find anything. I did find a number of alternative solitaires that claimed to make the game a little harder, though, so.. Um.. Yeah, ok!!
