Doesn't boot for me on 2DS 9.0. Doesn't even show up in the homebrew launcher actually. Using themehax automatic. I also noticed that you're missing the smdh, which might be needed.
 
Great :lol:

Any other card games you'd be interested in? I may make another when I'm finished with this.
Yeah, some "Texas Hold'em Poker" or "Video Poker" game style will be great! (Second should be easier to do, though)

I just made a custom .smdh for this game (through http://usuaris.tinet.cat/mark/smdh_creator/). If anyone is interested on it then "Take that!" :lol:

And, BTW for you, having .smdh file is really not necessary!

Interesting. You shouldn't need an smdh, that just contains the icon and text for the launcher, but the launcher will show a default icon/text. Did you place the files in a folder called blackjack-3ds in your 3ds directory?

It crashed a few times when i loaded it up but when it plays its great :) if possible maybe add a feature to select different types of designs on the cards and maybe a sound effect for winning ?

My folder was named blackjack3ds and not blackjack-3ds :P. Anyway, great work!

Any details on what caused the crash? I haven't had any crashes when loading so I'm curious.

More card designs is a great idea, I can definitely do that. Sound effects are also in the pipeline, just gotta find some I like. Probably add the ability to play background music too!

Yeah, that'll do it. Next release will have a smdh and folder in the zip to make it even easier!

Version 2 is coming out very soon! Lots of new features :) Just need to track down a bug related to settings/money persistence.

- menu logo
- settings (dealer hits soft 17, offer insurance, sound and bgm toggle)
- betting screen
- music and some sound effects
- general bugfixes

This looks cool. I'll give it a go over the weekend.

I've got a card based idea, although it might be a bit complicated to implement in a way that makes it work... Tarot reading!
The 'player' shuffles the arcana cards and they're dealt in the classic tarot 'ten card spread'. From the cards dealt it gives the 'player' a fortune reading.

Sounds like it's mostly a random number generator? Or is there player action involved in shuffling beside hitting a button to shuffle?

Nah, it would essentially be random. The tricky part would be accurately interpretting the cards drawn, as the order they're drawn, which direction they face, the influence of other cards drawn affecting one another, etc, all create a somewhat unique reading.

...plus, Tarot cards are cool B-)
 
Try to add multilanguage support. It shouldn't be hard in lua.

That's a great idea, I don't know how I didn't think of that! I'll target that for version 3. I'll definitely need some community help with the translations though.

I guess could help with Spanish one! (Some way isn't programming directly involved :lol:)
