The dev was like:
I've spent months learning to write physics for a gamedev project and they assign me to Solitaire?! I learned physics and they are gonna get physics.
That king of clubs right at the beginning... perfection.
me winning windows 95 solitaire the first time
Damn that dude hears in quadraphony.
It doesn't produce any of the solid-black ones =/
Ooooo I started off clicking slowly, then realized you can drag your finger around and go nuts. This is so satisfying!
Yes, but what card back was your favorite?
I really liked the spooky castle
Not really. I could do the same effect frequently with my open windows and mouse cursor.
I almost wonder if this was the same common glitch and they were just like...whoa that looks cool let's just ship it.
I feel like I remember reading that was the case somewhere, but don’t quote me on it
Same, afaik it was a case of not rendering correctly and in all versions since they just went with it. Cant find a source though...
I got to level 100 in the latest version of solitair and then never played it again. The ads became too much.
Solitaire has ads now?!
Oh yes. Integrated with Xbox account, levels, achievements, daily challenges, ads, collectibles , badges and a subscription to remove the ads. It perfectly represents everything that's wrong with modern software.
Jesus, that's just awful.
As opposed to unsuccessfully winning.
