Raw Blame History

Virtue Slots

A browser-based slot machine game with a Christian religious theme, built with Phaser 3 and vanilla JavaScript. May Fortune Favor the Faithful.

Features

10 holy symbols — from Dove to Holy Grail, each with unique payout values scaled by holiness
Animated reels — smooth spin, decelerate, and snap-to-symbol with sprite overlays
Win sequence — "MATCH: 3×" banner punches in with elastic animation, sparkles, and shaking; followed by arcing coin animations splitting 60% to the player and 40% to The Lord
Loss sequence — a devil carries the spent money up to the Sin box with a wobble animation
Split labels — on a win, animated callouts show "YOUR WINNINGS 60%" and "THE LORD'S TITHE 40%" so the player always understands where the money goes
The Reckoning — two filling vials on the right track cumulative funds for "The Lord" and "Sin"; whichever reaches $2,000 first wins; vials shake progressively harder as they approach the limit
Living background — stars drift, twinkle, and pulse independently for an ambient celestial feel

Game engine	Phaser 3 via CDN
Language	Vanilla JavaScript — ES6 modules
Bundler	None — files are served directly

Running Locally

Browsers block ES6 module imports from file://, so serve over HTTP:

# Python (built-in)
python3 -m http.server 8080

# Node (npx)
npx serve .

Then open http://localhost:8080 in any modern browser.

Project Structure

index.html              Loads Phaser 3 (CDN) and main.js as type="module"
main.js                 Phaser.Game config — registers all three scenes

state/
  GameState.js          Singleton: playerFunds, lordFunds, sinTotal, spinning flag

utils/
  RNG.js                shouldWin() (~1/15), pickResults() for reel targets

objects/
  Symbol.js             SYMBOLS array — id, label, holiness, payout, color
  Reel.js               Single reel: virtual infinite strip, pooled cells, sprite overlay
  SlotMachine.js        Orchestrates 3 reels; manages spin timing and result callback
  WinAnimation.js       Match banner → gold flash → arcing coin animation → split labels
  LossAnimation.js      Devil graphic rises to the Sin box
  MatchBanner.js        Full-screen "MATCH: 3× {label}" overlay with particle burst
  VialDisplay.js        Filling vial with shake escalation and winner detection

scenes/
  BootScene.js          Preloads assets (symbol spritesheet), then starts game
  GameScene.js          Background, stars, slot machine, vials, input handling
  UIScene.js            Overlay HUD: fund boxes (top), message + SPIN button (bottom)

assets/
  symbol_sprites.png    200×100 px spritesheet — 10 frames, one per symbol in order

Scene Communication

Scenes communicate exclusively through the global Phaser event bus (this.game.events):

Emitter	Event	Payload
UIScene	`spin`	—
GameScene	`win`	`{ playerGain, lordGain, symbol }`
GameScene	`loss`	`{ sinAdded }`
GameScene	`funds-updated`	—
GameScene	`spin-complete`	—
GameScene	`insufficient-funds`	—
VialDisplay	`vial-winner`	`{ winner }`

Sprite Sheet

assets/symbol_sprites.png must be a horizontal sprite sheet:

Frame size: 200 × 100 px
Frame count: 10 (one per symbol)
Frame order: must match the SYMBOLS array order in objects/Symbol.js (Dove at index 0, Holy Grail at index 9)

License

Do whatever you want with it. Probably don't build a real gambling site.
