[fapnip]

Release of FapJack with Melody:
https://milovana.com/webteases/showtease.php?id=45690

FapJack is a simple blackjack game with edging, endurance, etc.

All feedback appreciated. Please report any issues/typos/bugs!

If people find the core game fun, it's relativity easy to release new games with different models and verbiage.

Updated "pre-release" version here.

Known Issues:

Spoiler: show

• FireFox on Android doesn't play audio until well into the game. Can't seem to find a work-around.
• iOS/Safari doesn't play "FAP Roulette" clicks correctly on some (older?) devices.

Change Log:

Spoiler: show

v0.17 (Pulled from production.):

• Add optional Anal/CEI/CBT kinks under Settings->Kinks
• Changed cum round to automatically cycle images every 10 seconds
• Added "Lost 1 Rest" penalty
• Numerous changes to core game

v0.9a:

• Fix broken link to instructions page introduced in 0.9

v0.9:

• Added more timers in to give slower devices more time to load/authorize beat sounds. (IOS/Safari)
• Simplified (removed secret timer) and optimized (made JS code faster) "Fap Roulette" to allow it to work better on slower devices. (Still doesn't play clicks correctly on iOS/Safari)

v0.8:

• Completely refactored the way round images are loaded. Before, I loaded one page per "level", then if'd through 15 images to display the one for the given round. Some browsers seemed to re-load all 15 images on every level change. Now, there's one page per image.
• Changed most page goto actions to "pages.goto(page);" eval actions. EOS seems to pre-load any images it can find in pages referenced with goto actions, even if in an "IF" action that doesn't match, and those pre-loads seem to happen over and over again, eating ram on some browsers. (Do that in a loop like I do with each hand, and you die quickly? Strange that only some browsers/devices seem effected though.) EOS doesn't seem to follow pages.goto(page);, so images in pages referenced that way appear to only be loaded if the page is actually requested.

v0.7

• More aggressive stroking in later rounds if you still have a number of rests left
• Re-shuffle deck after 5 hands instead of continuous re-shuffle. (Currently no re-shuffle notification.)
• Maybe a fix for memory leak? (I tightened up notification use in a couple spots. Not sure if it will help. I can't replicate any memory leak.)
• A bunch of other under-the-hood changes that you shouldn't notice, unless they introduce a bug.

v0.5a:

• Increase default beat volume. Was too low on some devices.

v0.5:

• Added ability to recover your last game state if you return to the game within 2 minutes of exiting it. (Easy to accidentally back out of the tease on mobile browsers.)

v0.4a:

• Reverted accidental development edit not yet ready for pre-release testing. Oops!

v0.4:

• Added option to reset settings to default values if they were changed.
• Fix some typos.

v0.3:

• Reduced default volume level. (Thanks [private])
• Added settings manager so players can customize their experience a bit before starting a game.
• Added "Beat Volume" setting.
• Added "Fap In Round" setting. Default is enabled. If disabled, there will be no metronome while waiting for HIT/STAND, and timeout is reduced to 15s. (Thanks tckt78)
• Added "Stroke Penalty Limit" setting. Default is disabled. If enabled, stroke penalties will only happen in rounds 1.x and cum rounds. (Thanks Kristycookie)
• Fixed issue where game could say you lost in cum rounds. (Thanks Carnal1)
• Added final score for player & dealer when round ends. (Thanks [private])

v0.2a:

• Fix some typos.

v0.2:

• Add core game code for variable number of decks and using on-demand shuffling instead of continuous. (Hard-coded to 1 deck, continuous shuffling for now.)
• Decrease metronome volume.

v0.1d:

• Accidental release of dev code

v0.1c:

• Fix bug introduced in v0.1b.

v0.1b:

• Increase difficulty of edge/stroking in later rounds.

v0.1a:

• Initial pre-release

Many thanks to undeniable_denial for his metronome sounds. I make heavy use of them in this and my previous game. They saved a load of time not having to make my own!

I love the idea + how fast you have to stroke, its not booring/easy! :)

Thanks! I was aiming for very difficult to nearly unbeatable -- not sure if it's there.

Clicked through for a bit. Seemed pretty cool. I'll let you know more once I give it a proper playthrough.

Thanks!

This is great. Definitely challenging both with strokes/edges as well as pacing. There's enough time to decide on play, but no waffling. I like the option to skip rest time too, tho can't say I would!?

I'll certainly be playing many more times.

If you're seeking input (and the game is great as is) some thoughts:

▪ At the end, Cum round, it says you can come whenever you want. But if you click the cumming button it says you lost.

▪ I don't think it matters much (would make the game a little harder!) but I think usually in Blackjack the dealer doesn't deal themselves additional cards until the other players are done.

▪ I wonder if there'd be a way to incorporate some kind of player wagering. Maybe easier/harder strokes/edges or maybe other kinks like head/shaft stroking, cbt, cei, pot, tieing, etc. Maybe somehow with splitting pairs or doubling down or follow on games or something. Maybe though that would interfere too much with the pacing or simply be too much PIA.

Anyway, it's great and thanks for your obvious efforts in making & sharing it. And your other game "Be Nice, or Else!" (Also great)

Round 2 was too tough for me tonight... after a bunch of edges I hit 43(?) strokes in 14 seconds and it did me in (I even used 3 rests).

Fucking loved the tease though. Would love an option to only do edges & edge holds when you lose a hand. Otherwise I think it's perfect in it's simplicity, great job!

Excellent tease so far!!! I like this premise all around. The one thing that I would change up is the metronome during the play of the hand. I would turn it off as a rest moment, but with the timer that "punishes" you if didn't choose an option in time. To that point, I'd shorten the time to choose to 15-20s.

Looking forward to this being fully released!!

[fapnip]

Thanks to all of you for your feedback so far!

Here are the changes for v0.3:

• Reduced default volume level. (Thanks [private]) I'm curious if this is too low. Please let me know!
• Added settings manager so players can customize their experience a bit before starting a game. (I'm torn on this. I like giving people options, but hate the complexity it adds to UI.)
• Added "Beat Volume" setting.
• Added "Fap In Round" setting. Default is enabled. If disabled, there will be no metronome while waiting for HIT/STAND, and timeout is reduced to 15s. (Thanks tckt78)
• Added "Stroke Penalty Limit" setting. Default is disabled. If enabled, stroke penalties will only happen in rounds 1.x and cum rounds. (Thanks Kristycookie)
• Fixed issue where game could say you lost in cum rounds. (Thanks Carnal1)
• Added final score for player & dealer when round ends. (Thanks [private])

Please re-test in latest release.

I don't think it matters much (would make the game a little harder!) but I think usually in Blackjack the dealer doesn't deal themselves additional cards until the other players are done.

I wasn't sure how to best handle this when it's just you against the dealer with no other players.

I wonder if there'd be a way to incorporate some kind of player wagering. Maybe easier/harder strokes/edges or maybe other kinks like head/shaft stroking, cbt, cei, pot, tieing, etc. Maybe somehow with splitting pairs or doubling down or follow on games or something. Maybe though that would interfere too much with the pacing or simply be too much PIA.

My goal with this tease was, first, to see if it was even possible to make a playable blackjack game in EOS, then keep it as simple as possible while hopefully being engaging enough to play. I tried to come up with a way to work in doubling down, but gave up. Certainly open to suggestions/ideas for another tease!

Fucking loved the tease though. Would love an option to only do edges & edge holds when you lose a hand. Otherwise I think it's perfect in it's simplicity, great job!

Thanks! Please let me know if the changes in v0.3 are close enough to address your edge only request.

Hey there,

I really love that webtease. Already played it he third time.
You are that kind of developer who knows what they are doing, I appreciate your work and look forward to the next one

Thanks!

For anyone that tried to use the webtease in the last half hour or so and failed, please accept my apologies. Was making changes to what I thought was my development version, but was instead editing this pre-release one. Should be back now.

[fapnip]

Thank you all for the feedback!

Tease has been released.

[Achatius]

I would appreciate more stroking instead of edging. After every edge you got a "free rest" so i had 7 unused rests in the end

[Liquidorus]

Hey, it's me again.
I just played be nice, or else. It is kind of a game as well.
Anyways then I just thought a nice little tweak for your next teases would be to have some moaning in audio as well to try to push you over the edge and loose

[Ambossli]

Interessting

But I have the feeling the game is riged in the dealers favor

Interesting idea. I may give that a shot in the future. Thanks!

But I have the feeling the game is riged in the dealers favor

It re-shuffles the deck after every hand and it's as random as JavaScript's random method allows, but it is surprising how often the dealer wins.

It's completely random. I could increase the probability of stroking I suppose. The free rest time does (should) decrease after each full round.
Surprised that you ended (won?) with 7 unused rests... maybe I should increase stroking penalty probability and length based on number of unused rests?
