    Back story
    Hey everybody. I've had a passion for blackjack that started about the time I left the RSPS scene. The online free blackjack games that were available did not have the features that I was looking for.
    It seemed like the majority of them had unfair rules and was usually up in my face, demanding me to buy chips once my bankroll depleted, not allowing me to really test my skills at the game.
    A couple times I would find decent games but they lacked the persistent data aspect. Finally, I decided to develop the game that I've been wanting to play.

    Summary
    CW Blackjack aims to provide a realistic twist to the online blackjack experience. It is your choice whether you play as a gambler,
    riding the highs for as long as you can, or an advantage player, pocketing riches in the long run.
    Career mode offers persistent data, immersion, and a large selection of blackjack games that vary in rules and bet ranges.
    Games can be selected individually or if preferred: a quick play option can place a player in a game, if available, that is friendly to a bankroll of a player.

    Features
    Realism
    • Bets and cards move fluently on the screen to depict betting actions and winning or losing your hands
    • Games with varying numbers of decks
    • Shuffle practices used at real casinos; The deck(s) or shoe is not shuffled after a single round
    • Venues can detect card counters/advantage players and the level of aggression varies based upon the configuration
    • Minimal indication of hand score
    • There is not endless amount of chips when squandered or a run of bad luck has occurred
    • The rules; Not all games are fair
    • Persistent data


    Side bets
    Some venues contain games with side bets.
    • 21+3 | The first two cards of a player playing the side bet are assessed with the dealers cards; The player is paid anywhere from 5 to 1 up to 100 to 1 depending on the poker hand score
    • Perfect Pairs | The first two cards of a player playing the side bet are assessed by the dealer. The player is paid up to 25 to 1 for a perfect pair.
    • Raise The Roof | With raise the roof, the bet is made to assert that the dealers hand will bust.
      The player can raise the roof per se, after the the initial deal. "The player may raise his Raise the Roof with an additional amount of 1x to 5x the original Raise the Roof wager"-Wizardofodds.com.


    Betting methods and other controls
    • Players can bet by interacting with a slider or the player can choose the traditional betting mode for more precision
    • Hit,stand,double; Surrender, split and double are offered depending on game
    • Players can choose to sit out multiple rounds of blackjack if desired to avoid interrupting the game play of others when AFK for a short while



    Achievements and Statistics
    The statistics of the game play throughout the player's career can be found on the in-game stats and achievement page within the web browser. All achievements are listed with completion status.
    Statistics include rounds played, hands played, consecutive wins and more. Achievements are planned to be something that can be shown off to other players via profile viewing feature that comes later.

    Regions
    CW Blackjack is set in the United States and players are invited to choose one from ten regions to reside in during the initial stage of the game. Each region has a different cost of living, reflecting real world costs.
    Each login day the user pays 1/30th of the monthly fee. Regions determine the types of venues you will be subjected to.

    Current regions:
    • California
    • Nevada
    • Colorado
    • Mississippi
    • Louisiana
    • Oklahoma
    • Iowa
    • Michigan
    • Florida
    • New Jersey


    Venues
    Venues (or casinos) are a construct to offer the games to the players. Each venue has its own configuration, including an aggression index, reward index, geographic location (to a degree) and statically defined blackjack table configurations.
    Venues award player points if the player chooses to be tracked ,i.e. sign up to the players club.

    Player Owned Houses
    Players are given a low end house in the beginning of the game.
    The house serves as a place to receive mail from casinos, obtain web access for customization/travel/resource purposes and collect a daily paycheck from their employer.
    The intent is to allow full customization of the home, that feature is currently in development. In the meantime, a high end house with a luxury interior is available.

    Pretty fun, and accurate from what I know (very little). Looking forward to see what this evolves into.

    Got a knack for art, do ya? I have been introduced to fiverr. I've got someone UX/UI'ing the entire project because I have came to the conclusion my design practices are in fact outdated.

    Cool dude. I'm just one of "those" people who think art really makes or breaks a game :/ glad you've got someone to do it man, think blackjack would attract a lot of people, even more so if the UI looks professional
