I need a functional skeleton for a kids game: Memory.
A number of tiles are placed in front of you, faces down.
You are to click (turn) them two at a time, and find pairs.
I want the game to be coded in Visual Basic 6, using the game engine found at dxgame.com.
If you want to code it without the use of dxgame that can be discussed, as long as the result is good.
Coder should provide simple graphics and sounds, just for demonstrating purposes.
Needed functions:
-Full screen rendering
-Option to choose 800x600 or 1024x768 resolution at startup.
-All user interface must be graphical and customizable. (Including buttons and text)
-Customizable background image.
-Customizable graphics for back side of tiles.
-Customizable graphics for front side of tiles.
(need to be able to assign a unique picture to each tile.)
-Customizable sound when a tile is clicked (turned).
(need to be able to assign a unique sound to each tile)
-Customizable sound when a pair is found.
-Customizable sound when failed to find pair.
-Customizable sound at startup and when new round is started.
The game is simple in it's initial form, but needs to be flexible to the desiger so that:
Pairs can be defined as:
*two identical pictures
*two similar but not identical pictures
*two identical sounds
*two similar but not identical sounds
*a picture matching a sound
*a sound matching a sound
This should allow me to make "different versions" of the game.
Different variations of the game is to be sawn into a bigger game.
When game is won, it should ask user if to play again.
It should also have a exit button that can be used at any time during play.
The game should look and feel good.
If something is unclear about functionality or design, please just ask. :-)
Code should be clean, commented and all appropiate errorhandling should be in place.
