Description
HexCards is a card game in which two players strategically place hexagonal cards on a playing field to capture the other's cards. Each of the six sides of each card is assigned a numeric value ranging from 1 to 10 (10 is displayed as an "A"). When you place a card on the playing field, you can capture cards in adjacent tiles if the value for that specific side is larger than the value on the adjacent card's side. Watch the video tutorial for a demonstration with instructions for more information.

Features

* It's playable.

Deozaan: you're a dreadful tease, to give so much information, as well as a video, and as much as I've encouraged Teasing in NANY 2009: I think you've got to stop it and let us have a game!!  :P

Deozaan:
I've uploaded attachments of the current version to the original post.

I've never tried building the project for Mac computers so I don't even know if it works, so I need Mac users to test it and let me know if it works.

Also be aware of the following information (already mentioned in the original post): The only way to start a new game is to exit and restart. It doesn't announce a winner.

Perry Mowbray:
Cool: great fun!  :Thmbsup:
