Updates

Spinning reels added [15.11.01]

This is my attempt at reproducing an early pub/amusement arcade fruit machine using JavaScript.

Thanks to Daniel Tink for graphics and original concept (?!).

Version 1.1: This has now been amended to feature spinning reels. Note that this script must be used offline for this to work as intended.

Click below to try out the fruit machine.
