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 scenarios, I can't think of a quick and easy way to test this one! If you see a dead shoebox, be sure to let me know! Rest assured, however, that when it does now happen, a reset should no longer erase all of your Win/Play scores, just your current gam...

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 start making a "generic unbranded crossword style word game" game. The next part of that particular puzzle is trying to decide on scores for tiles. Do I stick with "Stringy Things" tile scores, which they currently are in the game, or do I switch to using...

Things will probably be fairly quiet around here for the next few days. As soon as I'm allowed to post about it, I will do. Suffice to say, the past couple of days haven't exactly been the cheeriest at home, and it's been fairly rough sailing. Normal service will resume ASAP

I spent yesterday with the family.

KORG Gadget 2 released, yesterday morning, on iOS, Mac and also now on Windows. As such, I took a day off from coding, and instead spent the day playing with the iOS edition of the app.

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.
