Post news Report RSS Hanafuda: Koi Koi nears release!

As the Entity Games team works really hard to bring you top quality games, we think we're finally at a stage where we can show more information regarding one of our projects. We've shown screenshots of our take on Hanafuda in the past but now that we're much farther into development we feel comfortable saying that this is even better than before as we've completely redone most of the game's look and feel.

Through polishing the game we've also been exploring different types of music. After trying some ambient electronica, and other forms of modern music we realized that the music that would fit our game the best would be some classic Japanese style music. After searching the internet and nearly paying $500 for music to be made, we stumbled upon this amazing song on a freely licensed music website. We couldn't be happier, thanks Kevin MacLeod!

Those are pretty old. I have a newer deck and unfortunately isn't from Nintendo. It's really cool that you still have a Nintendo deck though.

Very excited to read this. And I know a friend of mine who will be just as excited. Ever since I taught him to play koi koi we've been wanting to play online but haven't found where to do so.
