I got bored with the start of the school year and decided to throw together a few card games. Here's the first one in my series. The game is "Crazy 8's". Rules are included with the game, so feel free to test it out and point out any flaws or improvements you find. It's uploaded as an executable Jar file, so you should just be able to download and double click to make it work. You will need the Java runtime environment. It should also work on all platforms. Let me know what you think.
Known Issues:
- Occasional image buffering glitches remain when a player discards a card.
- FIXED - When maximizing or restoring a window cards do not appear correctly.
- FIXED - If the game proceeds long enough to shuffle the deck, there is a glitch with how the draw pile is display.
- FIXED - The window likes to default to it's original open state (ie. certain size, not maximized, etc.)
- FIXED - When a player accumulates more than 11 cards in a hand, there is some cut off and only half of the cards are visible.
Considered Improvements:
- I may implement double buffering to cut down on drawing glitches.
