#102This is amazing work, well done! I haven't seen such a great CRT effect but I would love to see that kind of effect available as something you could overlay on old retro arcade games.
This is available! Check out retroarch (or retropie if you have a pi 3 or 4 laying around) - it’s pretty great! Lots of shaders to choose from but pi-crt has a similar look to this and performs well

#103Pair of aces counts as 1 instead of 14? Bug or was it like this originally?

#104Went up to $60 and then went bankrupt. Reminded me of why I don't play gambling games.
The house always wins.

#105I really like Godot so far but the debugging tools are massively inferior to any other IDE and language I've ever used. I waste so much time trying to track down bugs. Proper variable inspection would be a life saver, for instance.
If you're using C# instead of GDScript you can use Visual Studio (or VS Code or Rider) and get access to all the debugging tools available in those IDEs. You can also use VSCode for GDScript but I've never tried it so not sure how the debugging experience is with that.
Found this for next time you need to try GDscript on vscode https://github.com/godotengine/godot-vscode-plugin

#106A. I forgot how addictive video poker is, and B. $250 max payout for a straight flush is crazy low!
Agreed and agreed. $250 is criminally low
Re: Show HN: Classic Video Poker
#107Very cool. And I agree about Godot.
Small suggestion if you could make the crt less blurred it would be an improvement.
Re: Show HN: Classic Video Poker
#108This is great! Thanks for sharing! I've been curious about Godot too.

And this is the magic of open source and the current situation. There will be many like you and a few with the dedication and skills to make that happen for the benefit of us all. The Unity move was VERY silly considering the state of Godot and Unreal. Literally treating your entire user base like that. I spent $400 for the Pro license when I was a poor Uni student back in '09 and it didn't translate to the newer ver…
Unity is an advertising company that also has a game engine hobbyists use - I don't think what they did was necessarily a bad financial move, they just shafted the part of their userbase that doesn't generate much money and then wound it back when they realized it was really bad PR.

#110Looking good, except no payout on a pair of Aces like others mentioned. I'm in the market to learn Godot, and have already done a couple tutorials. What did you find was the best resource for learning Godot? And do you code in C# or GDScript while using it?
I can't vouch for the quality, but Humble Bundle has a Godot bundle up now, a mix of Godot 3 and 4 stuff (and Blender), for literally whatever you want to pay for it: https://www.humblebundle.com/software/everything-you-need-to...
