PaperGames - Senet (embedded copy)
Original project: PaperGames by Christopher Müller
Repository: https://github.com/YourChaosChris/PaperGames
Commit: 61e6a1ec8a0cd649cd9196af4f5def83e541706e
License: MIT (see LICENSE). NOTICE and README.md are copied unchanged; README.md holds the
"Third-party assets" section that NOTICE refers to.
None of the third-party artwork listed in README.md (chess pieces, xiangqi/shogi piece
drawings, home-page icons) is used by this game; its board and pieces are drawn with CSS.
What was copied: only the files that senet.html loads - senet-core.js, senet-ai.js, senet-app.js,
style.css and the shared helper scripts listed in index.html. senet.html was renamed to index.html.
Not copied: every other game, the rules/history/about pages, the lang/ translation files, sw.js,
manifest and icons. The Lichess sign-in/API scripts (lichess-auth.js, lichess-api.js) belong
only to the original chess page; this game never loaded them and they are not included.
Changes (same approach as the other PaperGames copies on this site):
1. index.html (was senet.html)
-
rebuilt: removed the canonical-link script, the hreflang alternate links, the Open Graph
and Twitter meta tags (all pointing at yourchaoschris.github.io), the favicon, apple-touch-icon,
manifest and theme-color links, and the inline language-detection script. The is now
"Senet | PaperGames"; the meta description is kept.
- gets data-game="senet" so quick-rules.js still finds this game's short rules.
- The header "PaperGames" home link and the "by Christopher Müller" about link are now plain
text (the credit itself is kept).
- Removed the Home / Guide / About / History navigation links to the original site's pages.
- Removed the footer links to the original site's legal notice and privacy policy pages.
- Removed these script tags: sw-register.js (service worker registration), update-banner.js,
force-update.js and offline-status.js (service-worker/offline-cache features), game-switcher.js
(drop-down and "Related games" links to the app's other games) and rules-link.js (link to a
separate rules page that is not included).
2. i18n.js: getLang() always returns English, because the lang/*.js translation files are not
shipped. One English string (home_four_in_a_row_desc) was reworded to avoid a trademarked name.
3. settings-menu.js: removed the Language section and the Version / "Force update now" section.
4. quick-rules.js: reads the game id from instead of the file name; removed the
"All rules" link to the separate rules page.
5. game-storage.js, game-stats.js: emptied the old-name migration maps (they only listed former
page names, two of them trademarked game names). style.css: a trademarked game name in code
comments was replaced with "four-in-a-row" (comments only).
6. senet-app.js: a trademarked game name in two code comments was replaced with
"four-in-a-row". Comments only.
(Files 2-5 are identical to the copies in /embed/checkers/.)
The game rules, computer opponent, board drawing and layout are unchanged.
- 2026-11-09: reworded one quick-rules string in i18n.js and one comment in style.css to remove a third-party dice-game brand name (not shown in this game).
