A successful double-click was rendering the slide-to-destination
animation twice — once from the first press's MoveRequestEvent
landing, and again from the release's StateChangedEvent racing the
in-flight CardAnim and replacing it from the mid-animation
position.
The frame trace:
Frame N (second press):
handle_double_click → MoveRequestEvent (queued)
start_drag → DragState set, drag.committed = false
(start_drag never mutates Transform; the
card is still visually in place)
handle_move → applies the move, fires StateChangedEvent
sync_cards_on_change → cur ≠ target, inserts CardAnim slide
(animation #1 starts)
Frames N+1, N+2, …:
follow_drag idles (drag uncommitted, cursor not moving)
CardAnim animates the card from old to new pile
Frame N+K (release):
end_drag → drag.committed = false branch:
drag.clear() + StateChangedEvent ← CULPRIT
sync_cards_on_change → sees the card mid-CardAnim
(cur ≠ target), replaces CardAnim
with a fresh one starting at the
current mid-position (animation #2
visibly restarts the slide)
The fix is one line: drop the StateChangedEvent write in the
uncommitted-drag branch of end_drag. The defensive resync was
never needed there — start_drag only mutates the DragState
resource on press, never card transforms, so an uncommitted drag
has no visual side effect to undo. The committed-drag branch (line
762) keeps its StateChangedEvent write since snap-back from a
real drag does need a resync.
Existing tests pass unchanged. The bug only manifested in the
specific timing of double-click → quick-release before
animation-complete; an integration test would require driving
mouse press/release across several frames with a dispatched
GameMutation pass between, which is heavier than the fix
warrants.

Solitaire Quest
A cross-platform Klondike Solitaire game written in Rust, with a card-theme system, full progression (XP / levels / achievements / daily challenges), and optional self-hosted sync so your stats follow you across machines.
Features
- Klondike Solitaire — Draw One and Draw Three modes; foundations are unlocked (any Ace lands in any empty slot, the slot then claims that suit)
- Card themes — bundled hayeah/playing-cards-assets default plus user-installable themes (drop a directory under the data dir or import a zip from Settings → Cosmetic)
- Modern HUD — reserved top band keeps cards from crowding the score readout; the action bar auto-fades when the cursor leaves it so it can't compete with the play surface
- Drag feel — every legal drop target is highlighted in green during drag; cards cast a soft drop shadow that lifts when picked up; the stock pile shows a remaining-count chip so you can see how close you are to a recycle
- Keyboard navigation — Tab cycles focus through buttons, arrow keys move within picker rows, Enter activates; works across every modal and the HUD action bar
- Progression — XP, levels, unlockable card backs and backgrounds
- 19 Achievements — including secret ones
- Daily Challenge — server-seeded so every player worldwide gets the same deal
- Leaderboard — opt-in, powered by your own self-hosted server
- Special Modes (unlocked at level 5): Zen, Time Attack, Challenge
- Sync — pull/push stats across devices via a self-hosted server
- Color-blind mode — blue tint on red-suit cards alongside the suit glyph
Building
Prerequisites
- Rust stable toolchain (
rustup install stable) - Linux:
libasound2-dev libudev-dev libxkbcommon-dev - macOS: Xcode Command Line Tools
# Fast development build
cargo run -p solitaire_app --features bevy/dynamic_linking
# Release build
cargo build -p solitaire_app --release
./target/release/solitaire_app
Controls
Every action also has a visible UI button — keyboard shortcuts are optional accelerators.
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| Left click / drag | Move cards |
| Double click | Auto-move card to its best legal destination |
| Right click | Highlight legal moves for a card |
| Space / D | Draw from stock |
| U | Undo |
| H | Hint (highlight a legal move) |
| N | New game |
| Z | Zen mode |
| G | Forfeit (during pause) |
| Tab / Shift+Tab | Cycle keyboard focus |
| Enter | Activate focused button / auto-complete (when badge is lit) |
| Esc | Pause / dismiss modal |
| F1 | Help / controls |
| F11 | Toggle fullscreen |
| S / A / P / O / L / M | Stats / Achievements / Profile / Settings / Leaderboard / Menu |
Card themes
The default theme ships embedded in the binary, so the game runs
self-contained with no external assets. To install another theme, drop a
directory containing a theme.ron manifest plus 53 SVG files (52 faces +
1 back) under the platform data dir's themes/ folder, or import a zip
from Settings → Cosmetic. The picker chip lights up the moment a new
theme is registered. Themes are SVG-based, so they rasterise cleanly at
whatever resolution the window happens to be.
Sync Server (optional)
To sync stats across machines, run the self-hosted server. See README_SERVER.md for setup instructions.
Once the server is running, open Settings → Sync Backend, enter the server URL and your username, and register an account from within the game.

Credits
Built on Bevy and the wider Rust ecosystem
(Tokio, Axum, sqlx, Serde, kira, and many more). Card faces come from
hayeah/playing-cards-assets
(MIT, derived from the public-domain vector-playing-cards library); the
default card back is original work; the UI font is FiraMono-Medium (OFL).
