Samory
Description
I did code this game as a hobby project, this is a digital memory game which does allow me to digitalize pictures drawn by my son. Since I did this via a side load approach by allowing the creation of custom decks you can import your own card decks.
The game does include a single simple card deck, allowing you to play right away. You should play this game with another person via hot seat, to learn how to play, please check the manual.
This game is open source, so if you want to use this as a base for any project feel free to use the code. Links to the repository and issue trackers can be found down below.
Most of the assets of this game are from Kenney, thank you for making them free to use. Some assets are created via Material Maker. Special thanks to Axuree for creating unique special assets for the card backs and established a color palette.
The music of the game was composed by Abstraction, the music is made free to use and can be found here
The initial csv based localization was done with the help of the localization editor. After switching to gettext poedit was used.
If you need more information on how to play or how to create custom decks, check the manual.
Playing on the Web
Since I need to upload that version manual it is properly behind the version you can download.
Touch devices
Keep in mind that this support is not that polished, but give it a try.
It did greatly inprove with Version 0.7.0
Performance should get an improvement with 0.13.2

Known Issues
Version 0.17.0 and 0.17.1
- Buttons on Linux are not visible or working, the game cannot be used with that version on Linux. Try the Web build instead.
Version 0.17.2
- IP Address is not correctly fetched from a Linux machine. This is only relevant if hosting a LAN game and someone tries to use the auto discovery. Please connect via IP directly for now.

I get an error when trying to run it in my browser. I hope this info helps :)
The following features required to run Godot projects on the Web are missing:
WebGL2 - Check web browser configuration and hardware support
Which device did you use? Do you know which browser is installed?
I did test it on Android with Chrome and Firefox Also I did test it on Windows and Linux with Firefox and Edge.
I do know that it is not working on the FireTV Tablet, somehow that browser prevents the game from running.
I'm on Arch Linux using a Firefox fork called Librewolf. It is very possible that the library necessary isn't included.
I did test it with Firefox and Zen on Arch, but not that exact version.
I will give it a try if it still does work there, but it should as I use the same browser on Windows.
If it does work on those browsers on Arch I think it might be possible that that exact library is missing for Librewolf.
But if you are on Arch there is a AUR package for Samory available, if this is something you would want.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/samory-bin
Just did a quick check with Arch Firefox and Zen and it seems to work for me.
So it might be very likely that Librewolf is missing that library required.
I got it running and the music is playing. This is as far as I managed to get. No response from keyboard, mouse or joystick but the window functioned without crashing. I hope this helps.
You did install the AUR package?
That’s strange, did you reach the main menu or is it broken right away?
To be honest I’m confused as I tested the AUR package on Saturday on a Arch machine using Wayland and plasma and it loaded fine.
So either something is different on your machine or the update broke something. As I do lack a Arch system where the game does run native on diagnostic is a hard. I have to ask a friend of mine to use his rig once again.
Thank you for testing it out.
