Binokel Deluxe Development Wiki

This is the wiki for the development of the Binokel Deluxe Card Game app. The app is based on the lesser-known but fun card game "Binokel" which originates in south-west Germany (not to be confused with Pinochle)

Current Development Status

The project is currently in the definition phase. Development has not yet started.

Purpose

Aside from being able to play the game on various devices, the development of this app serves several additional purposes:

  • Testing the application of the Arc42 Template for Architecture Documentation on a new project.
  • Gaining experience in cross-platform app development
  • Being able to test various strategies by implementing them as computer players

Getting Started

If you're here for questions about the game, this is not the right place for you (And the right one does not yet exist, sorry). If you want to know about the development of Binokel Deluxe or even consider assisting in development, start by navigating through the Software Architecture Documentation in the navigation panel to the side (desktop) or below (mobile)

If you want to compile the code on your own, you will need the following things:

  • Everything listed in the Prerequesites section in my Cross-Platform MonoGame Tutorial.
  • An installed Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 (this is required for being able to compile fonts). The update might be at this link. If the link is updated, just google it
