Ditto.

#33Nice! Some feedback, maybe not specifically for your implementation, I think these are the reasons I've never gotten that into Mahjong even though I really like these kind of games. - Some of the bricks are too similar for me. Red symbol with a smaller black symbol above. As those symbols are meaningless to me, I'm unable to pattern match quickly. (It's probably the standard look, but having variations would be nice)…
Thanks a lot for the great feedback!
- I'm considering creating a Western variation of the tile set where the black characters (Chinese for 1 - 9) are replaced by 1, 2, ... 9, which might help a bit with the pattern matching (you might get used to the Chinese characters after a while, though!)
- 100% agree, the depth perception could be better
- the flower pot is a progress marker

Yes you're right, I wish I knew how to edit the post title to include the word "Solitaire" to avoid confusion.

You had I believe 2 hours to do it during which there was an 'edit' link.

#36This was really enjoyable, thank you.

#37Nostalgia overload. I love it. My only suggestion, I seem to trigger the drag when clicking for some reason. It happened to me quite often, maybe there should be a minimum distance before going into drag mode?
Now that you mention it, I guess there's really no reason for the tile images to be draggable so I better disable that! Also, thanks :)
That's great, I was using a Wacom tablet, and assumed that was the issue. This will help a lot, thank you.

#38Hey, Nice Game! One suggestion - Can you add an indicator so that people will know to scroll down for rules and stuff. I figured this out really late and by then, I had already googled all the rules.

It's called a "scrollbar" and shown in the browser.

Interesting... I’ll try to add some kind of indicator to show there’s some more content below the fold
Re: Show HN: I made a Mahjong browser game
#40Good job technically overall. Some player feedback:
It seems to be using more than a standard mahjong set? I saw 3 pairs of eight dots in a game.
Other confusing part are the one bamboo tiles where they’re all different art — took awhile to figure out they ‘matched’
Fun times!
