What I've been working on - Run Variants (Not out yet)


It's occurred to me that this is the longest I've gone without positing an update for Scrongly since it came out, so I wanted to put something out to let everyone know what I've been working on.

I really love Scrongly both as a project, and a game. I enjoy playing it as much as I enjoy working on it. My favorite thing about it is how relaxing it is, and how wacky it is when tons of things are happening at once to give a huge score boost.

I know everyone plays games for different reasons and I want to give everyone the chance to play the game the way they want. So with that in mind, I've developed a new 'Run Variants' system that will replace the old Hard Mode system.

With run variants you can do the following:

- Modify starting deck to exclude certain cards, or to include additional copies of specific cards. You can also add configurable numbers of random standard and nonstandard cards

- Modify what baubles you start with and whether or not they will show up in the pool of baubles available for purchase

- Adjust many special options, from starting with a larger hand size to blowing up every card that you play

- Run variants can be saved locally and/or exported into a copy-pastable text string that can be shared and imported by others


It's my hope that increasing freedom to play the game the way you want will increase your enjoyment of it. It's still got some work to go, but I look forward to getting into everyone's hands soon(ish)!

Check out the screenshots and let me know what you think, and if you have any ideas for special options that you'd like to see, I'd love to hear them.

Thank you,
