Shoebox - Pig
Blog
21st September 2019
A simple dice rolling challenge.
Roll the dice, and then decide if you want to roll again, totting up the scores into the Kitty as you go.
If at any moment you wish to "Bank" what you've earned, play will move to the next player
If you roll a One, you lose everything in the kitty.
It's a simple risk/reward game, but I really enjoyed the game, especially in Party Mode against 3 AL players.
You can Play Pig in the Shoebox under the Group games.

In reply to my earlier thoughts on "blurred" backgrounds, Alan suggests..
Probably requires opengl wizardry. I need to study up on this a bit myself.
And he's probably right..

I really really doubt this is going to be playable by Saturday!
There's a lot that isn't working, right now.. Basically, it can draw it, but it sure as hell can't play it!!

Today I did something that might very well break the Shoebox.
I've changed from having individual .js files for each game, to having a combined comb.js file that holds all of the games.
Hopefully, if your game breaks, a simple refresh of the page should reload the cache, and bump everything back to the way that it should be.
If it gets completely stuck, let me know, as well as what device/browser you're using, and I'll do my best to fix it.

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.

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.

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.
@RSKGamesBrowsercade games: The main menu or Homepage looks fantastic with each game having the name at the top in their own game themes.Views 358, Upvotes 27

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.
