File Download SOLITAIRE

A version of solitaire for the x16!
It's mostly petscii, but overwrites the last 4 chars to get filled round ends for the cards.

Controls:
Left-click to select/move cards
Right-click to deselect if one is selected (clicking a blank area also does this)
Escape starts a new game

Source code: https://github.com/cnelson20/solitaire/

Demo it here: Try It Now!

This is great! Awesome work!

One piece of feedback: Maybe put "Press ESC to restart game" on the game selection screen? You mentioned it in your post but I missed it and didn't know you could restart. Game is great though!

Thanks for the feedback. I added some controls to the start screen so it would be harder to miss :D

Few more suggestions:
  1. Since there's a lot of unused screen space, use a lower-res screen, if possible.
  2. Use that large empty space for the control descriptions, eliminating the need for a separate screen.
  3. Include keyboard-control option.

I was looking for a solitaire which is with Tetris a must have game. This little one is very well done. I enjoyed playing it!

Maybe add a confirmation step on the ESC-restart feature? I missed the "right click to deselect" instruction and tried to undo selecting a card by pressing ESC - boom.
