Could you provide source code instead of an executable?
Of course, If I'll write an article I'll provide source code. But I think it's not good idea right now because code is in very early stage and is not commented so it would not be helpful to beginners anyway. "...government is not the solution to our problem.

Well, pretty up the code and write an article for beginners :) PC

As a part of C# course I'm teaching in school, I developed simple Snake game. This is a very first draft. Try it out! If you'll enjoy it, I could write an article about it. [edit] Link is not available anymore. [/edit] You need .NET 2.0 to run game. Any ideas to improve game? "...government is not the solution to our problem. Government is the problem." -Ronald Reagan

Put obstacles in it like Nibbles had. In fact, make a .NET version of Nibbles. That would be neat. Jeremy Falcon

It was great. One of the first hacks I made for that game was infinite lives. Man, those were the days, back when programming was more important than sleep. :-D Jeremy Falcon

I still have Quick Basic 4.5 and I actually have it installed on this computer. Big difference between a 386 and a 2.5ghz P4 as far as QB 4.5 is concerned :-D

I created an entirely new-level. It was full of dotted lines, with a little offset, so you had zig-zag all the way around... I could never finish it :rolleyes: And I was like 13!! -- LuisR

Yeah, gotta love the old-style CPU/clock based timer routines. :) Jeremy Falcon

Oh man. I remember that. I so sucked at that game (at the time at least). :laugh: Jeremy Falcon

I did, just not the level I created. It was damn too hard!!

The first program I remember was a little game (in QBasic, of course) where the you had to guess the computer's secret number. I wrote it in Christmas 1991 (I was 10 then). The second version generated the number randomly!! :-D Ohh those were the days!! ;P -- LuisR

I got this old Sinclair computer when I was 9 and started programming then. It used a tape recorder for storage. I then moved up to a Commodore 64 when I was 10 and then got a 386 when they first came out. It's something else looking back at how far computing has come. PJC

Jeremy, I think I probably still have those games floating around here somewheres... Paul

Don't you love .NET? a 7KB executable. :-D Some ideas (not necessarily all compatible): snake moves slower as he becomes more well fed, and faster as he gets hungry. have snake grow as he eats. If he eats his tail, he dies. start putting more food on the board. Food lasts for a limited time. As snake grows, he needs more food, but more food makes him grow more, so he has to eat faster... sounds obstacles competing snakes magic "diet" pill (shrinks snake) mongoose (eats snakes) smoother animation--no reason to be blocky 3D-ish snake. Make him slither and look good networkable---snake death matches, hehehe. food can become rats, rats can move goals--clear all the rats in the village, but watch out for mongoose! give the environment some texture along the lines of the goal, maybe make the village a maze that you have to solve at the same time going back to the very first item, therefore, the player has to keep his snake fed enough to keep him moving "not too fast", but not so well fed that he can't escape the mongoose, etc. Marc Pensieve

I remember one of my first computers, a grayscale laptop, an HP Omnibook 360. It was a 386/20 MHz with 1 MB of RAM. When I upgraded it to 2 MB it was so fast!!! And trying to compare that to my 2 GB of RAM I have in my computer (that I just received on Thursday! :-D). My first PC was a 386/16 MHz back in 1990. Before that there was a computer at home, altough not officially mine: an Apple IIc. It's incredible how far we have gone in 15 years. I wonder what the next 15 will bring... -- LuisR
