Benjaminsen Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I just released Solitaire FRVR; the first game under a startup I am working on in my spare time. The game is written a custom canvas based HTML5 engine optimised to work well on both Web and Mobile.Including images the game takes up 233KB a number I hope to bring below 150kb inside the next few weeks. While I have tested it on as may devices I could get my hands on, I would be very interested to know if it works well on your devices. Play the game here and read more about the hobby startup here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suntemple Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I tested the game on Samsung G Tab 2 and it plays smoothly. I don't always manage to fetch the part of the stack that I need with the first try, but otherwise it's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totor Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 nice game! you should post the rules in the game since there are so many variants of the klondike. sometime i could not decide if the move was forbidden or bugged. i tested the game on ipod touch 4 ios 6 and it's smooth but a bit small, the rotation ot he device as issues though, the cards disappears and reappears only after a few touches on the (black) screen. i also tested on a samsung galaxy tab 2, it works but a bit jerky, the cards are not as crips as the ios version (no rotation problem).

I personally like how flip 3 makes the game harder to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get the cards to look reasonably well I had to write a custom resampled. It's slow which is what creates the black screen. I am working on a major rewrite to make it about 5x faster (no black screen) I don't believe the game is bugged and it should follow the classical windows solitaire rules.

totor Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 i'm sorry i do not remind all the windows solitaire rules since the game is not (yet) smooth and sometimes hangs or bugs maybe people just quit before reaching the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjaminsen Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 the stock browsers, safari on ios, the samsung one on android. Oki yea, I do not do well with the default android browser. I need to issue a warning to Android users to switch to Chrome or some such. In the future the game will exist as an accelerated app as well which could be a path to smoothness as well.

Benjaminsen Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 I did a rather massive update to the game. For those of you who have been experiencing lag on mobile phones, this should now be gone. Play new mobile optimized Klondike Solitaire.
