Game Development

Recipies about game development.

Setup​

Sort Pieces​

const hand = game.create(Space, "hand", { player });
hand.onEnter(Card, (c) => {
  hand.sortBy("name");
});

Make Pieces Visible Only To Owner​

const hand = game.create(Space, "hand", { player });
hand.onEnter(Card, (c) => {
  c.showOnlyTo(player.position);
});

Actions​

Draw Multiple Cards At Once​

game.defineActions({
  drawCards: (player) =>
    action({ prompt: "Draw 2 cards" })
      .chooseOnBoard("cards", $.drawPile.all(Card), {
        number: 2,
        confirm: "Take these 2 cards?",
      })
      .move("cards", player.my("hand")!),
});

Flow​

Draw an Initial Hand For Each Player​

for (const player of game.players) {
  $.draw.firstN(3, Card).putInto(player.my("hand")!);
}

Shuffle a Deck​

$.drawPile.shuffle();

Simultaneous Actions​

If you need players to perform actions at the same time:

everyPlayer({
    do: playerActions({ actions: ['discardCard'] })
}),
