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 want Klondike, don't they!!! So that'll be today's task. Spend a few hours trying to replicate the "classic" solitaire, and see how easy it is to get it working, without needing to rewrite too much of the overall engine. (And preferably fix t...

I still need to fix the "mode select" screen.. it's oddly cramped and yet curiously empty at the same time. Other than that, though, the games so far seem to be functional, and there's even a new Game Over screen for anything that uses scores. ... not sure how to solve the menu crampedness, though.... Hmm,....

Today's my birthday, so not much is planned for my day!

Happy Birthday, Me! And, as is tradition for my birthday, I've set made an iOS game (or two.. or three.. or four... or five...) free for the next few days. From Feb 23rd until Feb 27th 2019, the following iOS games are available for 100% free.

Sheep Goes Right

The happiest cardboard-cutout puppet styled game, with sheep and spikes, that you'll ever play... until someone makes a happier one!

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

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

Holy Munkies!!

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.

You can Play Shoebox of Games here 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 included in the pack, to create a lovely little collection of card games, word games, board games and more, all of which are playable within your browser.

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. You can Test the Shoebox here!
