Squib in Action
===============
Squib is in use by a lot of people! You can learn a lot from looking at how a whole project is put together.
A good way to peruse Squib code is to search for Ruby files on GitHub that have the phrase ``require 'squib'`` in them. And these are the just the people who have decided to release their code open source!
My Projects
-----------
Here are some of my own board and card games that use Squib. They are all under "active" development, which means that sometimes I leave them alone for long periods of time ;)
* `Escape from Scrapland <https://github.com/andymeneely/project-bolt-rats>`_ is a 9-card nano-game solo roguelike that I started July 2017. I'm also doing some video on it, `found here <https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLcm4ZswgXFYk6KKW_ISd8Kf9UGTV9Cfj>`_.
* `Your Last Heist <http://github.com/andymeneely/project-timber-wolf>`_ is a big-box cooperative game. Lots of really cool Squib things in here, including lots of Rake features, color+bw, and showing how skills can "level up" on their backs by diff'ing the stats in Squib. You can see what the components look like at `the game website <http://yourlastheist.com>`_. Also: the best game I've ever made.
* `Victory Point Salad <https://github.com/andymeneely/victory-point-salad>`_. A card-only game with lots and lots and lots of cards. Pretty straightforward as far as Squib usage goes, but it's a good peek into how I like to use Squib. Also: the funniest game I've made.
* `Junk Land <https://github.com/andymeneely/junk-land>`_ A game I made prior to making starting Squib, but then ported over to Squib while developing Squib. Uses some strange features of SVG, but also a good intro. Also: the scrappiest game I've made.

Open Source Projects using Squib
--------------------------------
Poking around GitHub, here are a few sightings of Squib:
* `Ecovalia <https://github.com/evolve2k/ecovalia-game>`_ - a game rapidly prototyped in a hackathon. Squib is featured in their video!
* `Werewolf <https://github.com/Xpktro/werewolf>`_ implemented and even uses GitHub releases!
* `Cult Following <https://github.com/ericathegreat/Cult-Following>`_ is a neat-looking project
* `Mad World <https://github.com/spilth/madworld>`_ uses CircleCI to build, even with some custom fonts.
Other Projects Using Squib
--------------------------
Here are some closed-source projects that use Squib:
* ScrapyardArmory's `Dysplacement <https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/dysplacement>`_ was used with Squib, and **won** the `Worker Placement contest <https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/dysplacement>`_ over at TheGameCrafter.
* `One Last Job <http://www.onelastjobgame.com>`_ - A 2-player Assymetrical Heist Card Game (from regular Squib contributor Brian Cronin)
