This looks amazing! Not sure when I'll get to try but can't wait!
Downloading the torrent now and will seed for 24 hours or so.

I suggest you leave at least 5 days before Halloween Eva, Because there are other real creators in the community who need to post heavyweight content on that day
Awesome improvement, being able to play with one hand free is very satisfying =).
Could you be able to make a change that the last square plays a random video starting by 0 or final, or something like that ?
I kinda want to cut all my favorite rounds of some ch and I would like to be able to take multiple cum round from thoses.
Added Boss Rush 5s intro message with line break and “in... N” countdown.
Log adds entry when a video starts: “Playing square X — filename”
Added start scripts: start-server.bat (Windows) and start-server.sh (macOS).
IMPORTANT:
The recent changes made it necessary to start up a proper server to run the application.
In the zip file there is a starting script mac and windows users that fires up a smiple http server and runs index.html
Requirements:
Either an installed python (Python Download) or node.js (NodeJS Download) environment

I have also considered the idea of randomly generating games, but I realize that being too random can lead to very undesirable results, such as trapping players in a certain range that they cannot break through, or making the game very easy in that range, and not having enough rollback rates near the end of the game, resulting in players repeating in the last few squares. So I gave up the idea of randomness and instead conducted testing, controlling the repetition range within two main ranges and ensuring that the second range is more difficult than the first range
I'm not trying to negate your work, but in this game, randomness is really uncontrollable. Or maybe I didn't think of the idea of making randomness controllable. Especially under the premise that rolling dice is already random. Perhaps we need more discussion. More people's discussions and attempts may make this game more interesting or perfect
May I ask if you can re release a game version that removes the Board randomizer feature and only retains the automatic playback of corresponding numbered videos
I definetely agree with you on the randomization part. Some painting some random snakes and ladders can result in a very weird layout the might lead to a frustrating experience.
But...
- The user doesn't have to randomize and can use the default when loading the game the first time (And even reset it with refreshing the browser)
- The user can roll as long as he/she wants until a fitting layout is displayed
I think the ability to randomize the board has more upsides than downsides. The upside is of course the ability to customize the experience and make it harder or easier to reach the end.
So, I wanted to add my favorites ch rounds and randomize what video is played on each case.
Since I don't really know anything about coding, I asked chat gpt to add it.
It works well, so I share it with you all : https://mega.nz/file/KIwxFZ7Q#4mZq8xHUo ... dHit3oirY0
- Each square will play a random video among those whose filename starts with that square's number (e.g. "1 a.mp4", "1 b.mp4").
- In the sidebar, in the "show loaded video" menu you will see how many video per case and their names.
