v0.5.0

Full Changelog: v0.4.0...v0.5.0

Childsplay Modern 0.4.0

20 activities on both targets (Godot desktop + HTML5 web), light/dark
theme, baked spoken instructions, per-channel sound. Everything runs
offline. Changes since 0.2.0:

New

• Quiz — a shared multiple-choice engine behind one menu tile with a
  deck picker: General / Pictures / Math / Words / Sayings. Decks are
  hand-editable JSON. Questions are spoken; a wrong tap never penalises.
• PWA — the web build is installable and fully offline (manifest +
  service worker).
• Windows build — childsplay-modern.exe alongside the .deb.

Gameplay

• Falling Letter — a real 6-level ramp (gentle first level); out of
  lives replays the level instead of ejecting you.
• Falling Letter & Word Maker — type on a physical keyboard, the
  device's on-screen keyboard, or an in-canvas one; a ⌨ button switches.
• Simon — 10 levels (sequence length 2 → 11).
• Four in a Row & Tic Tac Toe — local Pass & Play 2-player mode.
• Pong — court-style picker: Retro (Atari) / 90s Neon / Y2K / Modern,
  each with its own light + dark.
• Puzzle & Wipe — 10 / 12 levels; the picture is drawn from a shared
  painting pool by the level's difficulty tier, no-repeat within a session.
• Electro — fingertip-sized drag targets that snap to the nearest node.
• Aquarium — every fish named; a Material-3 parallax backdrop.
• Memory / Find Sound / Electro / Image Changer — an optional
  "say the names" toggle that speaks the picture on interaction.

Under the hood

• Art is referenced without an extension — a newer .svg beside a
  .png/.jpg wins automatically; a dormant "artwork" toggle is ready
  for an alternate art set.
• Game content moved into assets/data/: findsound.json,
  backgrounds.json (painting difficulty), quiz/*.json.
• Godot launcher rebuilt: responsive, paginated square-tile grid.
• Every in-game HUD bar is now a themed surface that reads in light mode.
• Consistent light/dark palette and WCAG contrast across every screen on
  both targets; per-game asset declarations under docs/assets/.

Verified: full script parse + headless scene-load of every game on both
targets. Not yet visually QA'd on physical hardware.

Downloads

Childsplay Modern 0.2.0

First tagged build of Childsplay Modern — a Godot 4 port of the classic
Childsplay learning games for children ages 2–7. The launcher opens 19
activities: Packid, Falling Letter, Memory, Billiards, Find Sound, Puzzle,
Aquarium, Pong, Find It, Four in a Row, Flashcards, Block Breaker, Simon,
Electro, Tic Tac Toe, Wipe, Image Changer, Numbers and Word Maker.

Highlights in 0.2.0

• Spoken instructions baked in — pre-rendered voice clips ship with the
  package, so the "read it aloud" prompts work with no TTS engine installed
  (falls back to live TTS where available).
• Light / dark theme across every screen, with a toggle in the menu;
  all games repaint live when it changes.
• Per-channel sound — a Music / Effects / Voice popover on the menu,
  each muting its own audio bus; the choice persists between runs.
• Flat, purpose-named asset pools with shared no-repeat picture draws
  (paintings, animals, sprites) so puzzle/memory/wipe don't keep showing
  the same image.
• Retuned difficulty curves, larger touch targets, on-screen "speak"
  buttons, and local 2-player for Four in a Row and Tic Tac Toe.

Install (Debian / Ubuntu, x86_64)

sudo apt install ./childsplay-modern_0.2.0_amd64.deb

or

sudo dpkg -i childsplay-modern_0.2.0_amd64.deb && sudo apt -f install

The package is an x86_64 Linux build (embedded PCK, ~130 MB installed).
Depends: libc6, libgl1, libx11-6, libxcursor1, libxinerama1, libxrandr2,
libxi6. On Ubuntu 24.04+ the libasound2 recommend is libasound2t64;
it's only a recommend, so install still succeeds.
