I’m still working on my Windows 8 application, King Poker, and have I learned some things this week. (It’s also available for Windows Phone, btw.)
In general, my app is pretty straightforward. It’s a video poker application designed to look as similar to the real video poker machines in casinos as it can. Last week, I got ambitious, and decided to add some functionality that goes above and beyond the core functionality you’d expect.
I added Azure Mobile Services, and if the user was online, every single hand was recorded to my cloud storage database. In the 10 days it’s been live, I’ve recorded over 45,000 random hands of video poker to my database.
