itch.io

Based on your feedback, I filed two bugs and built an update containing fixes for both:

(1) FIXED: Pressing <Ctrl+Z> with the intent to undo (menu shortcut) caused one card being uncovered on the waste pile

(2) FIXED: Playing with the mouse and keyboard at the same time sometimes disabled the menu until you moved or resized the window

thanks, I’ll go with that. There is a load menu already, anyway - the file type association surely isn’t important enough to outweigh all the valid concerns with installer and UAC.

I’m about to publish a Windows game for PC which can save game progress to disk. Now under Windows, double-clicking a file that’s associated with an application, opens it in that application (docx > Word etc). For this to work, the file type needs to be registered. Since Windows 8, associating a file type with an executable needs elevated permissions and is usually only done during installation, not from within the executable itself. Can itch.io uploads contain / consist of an msi or msix installer? The only question I found here about msi setup packages was like “its discouraged but if you must…” from 2022 - what’s the current best practice for this?

The features for the first release are complete. I’m currently debugging and testing. Everything looks good, if nothing unexpected pops up, then the release will be on time.

Some ideas for future releases, which will not make it into 1.0, are

• support for game controller input
• additional artwork (maybe more card design options)
• game stats (number of moves, time taken)
