Overtrick v0.3: Bridge with a Side of Juice

Overtrick
A browser game made in HTML5

Bridge is basically a perfect game. So how do you make a perfect game even better?

Answer: Juice.

In game dev, “juice” means the satisfying effects and animations that make every click, drag, and win feel amazing. It’s that extra bit of oomph that turns mechanics into moments.

In this update, Overtrick gets:

  • Smooth click-and-drag card play
  • Snappy card-play animations
  • An informative new scoreboard
  • Visual effects that celebrate every trick you take

Why? Two reasons:

  1. Make big moments bigger – when you win a trick, it should feel great.
  2. Teach through feedback – the game should subtly explain itself as you play.

What do you think? Is the cardplay sufficiently “juicy?”
