Inspiration

This project was built based on the fun I've had in my younger days playing Blackjack against friends on a Saturday afternoon. We played just for the fun of it and that's why this project is called RetroJack!

What it does

This game allows users/players to play against the dealer (NPC) in a game of Blackjack where all players must try to not pass 21 with the cards they hold or be automatically folded/busted (fail) in the game.

The game allows upto 4 players to go against the dealer at one time and play as much rounds as they want to play.

The game maintains a leaderboard that allows players to see how well they are doing against each other.

How we built it

This project was built using a simple single prompt in bolt to get to the main working version of the app.

Challenges we ran into

A challenge I ran into was that it only allowed a minimum of 2 players so I had to change 2 or 3 lines of code to reduce the limit to allow single player mode as well. Very simple issue to fix with the detailed code separation that ai provided in bolt.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I thought building a game in a single prompt was going to be impossible! But I'm glad this game out so well.

What we learned

I learned that using Entri via Bolt can connect a domain to our netlify deployment quite easily within 10mins of purchasing the domain so that was awesome to see.

What's next for RetroJack

In the pipeline I would want to focus on going full online with the multiplayer mode so that users across the net can connect and share in a fun battle of chance.
