WAR Card Game_uvr

Please update to Build 10614707 as soon as possible! This build has the Time Limit Feature update. How the Time Limit feature works works: To enable the feature, on the Start Panel, click on the time limit checkbox (under where it says "Time Limit:") so the box is check marked. Then, in the time limit input field, type in the number of minutes you want to play the game (ten minutes minimum). Then, click on the Start Game button to start playing. The game time remaining will count down to zero. At that point, whoever has the higher score is declared the winner. If the scores are tied, the game will be declared a draw. NOTE: There is an inactivity timer built in which will pause the game after thirty seconds while a timed game is playing. This is to discourage players from just playing a few rounds until they are ahead and then just waiting for the time to run out. I encourage you all to please let me know what you think about the new feature after you've tried it. Thank you.

This is the message you should take note of. Ignore the previous one.

Please update to Build 10614707 as soon as possible! The time limit feature was added in this update. How to use the time limit feature: To enable the time limit feature, on the Start Panel, click the checkbox under where it says "Time Limit" so that the box is check marked. Then, in the time limit input field, type in the number of minutes you want to play the game (10 minutes minimum) and press Enter. Then click the Start Game button to begin playing. The game time remaining will count down to zero. At that time, whoever is leading (has the higher score) will be declared the winner. If the scores are tied, the game will be declared a draw. NOTE: There is an inactivity timer built-in that's set for 30 seconds. This is to discourage players from just playing a few rounds until they are leading then wait until the time runs out.

I'm working on a Time Limit feature for WAR Card Game_uvr before I work on the Achievements. I'm trying to shorten the game to a more reasonable length since it usually goes on for an hour or so or longer until the cards finally play out and there's a winner. It would work in the following way: The player would enable the feature by clicking a checkbox (on the Start Panel) which would enable an input field (also on the Start Panel) into which the player would type a number of minutes (currently ten minutes minimum) then start the game. The game clock would count down the game time remaining until the time limit is reached at which time whichever player is leading would be declared the winner. If there is a tie, the game is declared a draw. I would like player's and potential player's feedback on what they think should be the minimum time limit as well as how they think I should handle potential stalling on the part of the player. The player could easily win just by playing a few rounds until he or she is ahead and then just wait for the rest of the ten minutes to pass and win. I would also like feedback on what kind of reward(s) you think players should get for playing the game without the time limit and winning. I believe they should get some sort of longevity achievement award. What do you think? Please enter the discussion here or email me at wardevjack@gmail.com. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
