VS 2008 Creating A Snake Game - PictureBox2 Touches PictureBox15?

May 21, 2010

we were asked to create a game.Me and my friend decided to go ahead and make the game 'Snake' (I think you all know this one)Since we never had any teaching on how to do it we looked already made games and used the same code (we found this one on a Youtube tutorial so I think it was alright to copy it).We picked it because it seemed pretty easy and we can tell what each thing does in the code.I also like fooling around so I changed all he values and stuff so I understood better what was going on.The game goes great but sometimes when the snakehead touches the food it doesn't 'eat' it and I don't know why :This is the part of the code that takes care of eating the food.(PictureBox2 is the snakehead, PictureBox15 is the food)

[code]...

I just don't know why does happens. The PictureBox2 touches PictureBox15 but nothing of what I typed above happens.

.NET Snake Game Freeze When Hold A Key Down?

Dec 24, 2011

I'm trying to make the classic Snake game in VB.NET, but if I hold a key (any key) during the game, after a few seconds the game freezes until I release the key. I've tried lots to fix this, but nothing works, maybe because I don't understand the problem.I'm assuming that when I hold down a key, the Form1_KeyDown function gets called, and when, after a few seconds, the key goes into "I'm being held down" mode, that function is constantly called, so the timers don't get a chance to update. But like I said, I'm probably wrong.

I've been struggling with this for a while. I think this is all the necessary code, please let me know if it isn't.

Process Of Making A Snake Game Using .NET?

Jul 23, 2010

I am currently in the process of making a snake game using VB.NET... I was just wanting to gather ideas on how to do the body of the snake..Currently I have a class called SnakeBody which contains the following code:

[Code]...

I guess what I am asking is if Dim body As PictureBox a logical thing to put in my class. As in, I am not sure if that is the correct thing to do? To create the actual body of the snake I will have an array of these SnakeBody objects. If `'Dim body As PictureBox is valid How do I reproduce the same picturebox everytime my snake eats something?

[2008] Creating A User Tool For A Game - Simply Shows Information About My Own Character

Feb 23, 2009

I am creating a user tool for a game I am playing (NOT a hacking tool, it simply shows information about my own character). I have a template of what I need to do with the data I recieve, here is the code, it is coded in PHP

function decode_style($r) {

//get gender
$gender_array = array('Male', 'Female', 'Male 2','Female 2','Male 3', 'Female 3');
$style['Gender'] = $gender_array[round($r / hexdec(4000000))];
//GET AURA

[CODE]...

Ok, I understand PHP a bit (As you know one programming language you can understand just about any) and this is what I have created from this

Dim Style As Decimal
Dim Rank, RRank As Decimal
Dim Gender, RGender As Decimal
Dim Aura, RAura As Decimal

[CODE]...

As you can see, it is receiving a single piece of data from a remote SQL server, I then need to run this data through the above calculations (Seen in the PHP file) although the answers I'm getting are incorrect.

Here are some simple instructions I got in what goes on between values:

gender :

Game Programming :: Creating PictureBoxes During RunTime?

Jun 25, 2008

Recently I have been wanting to learn a bit more about Visual Basic and I've decided that I want to test my abilities by Making a Card game. The card game uses a customized deck of around 140 card. The Cards are all buildings which you need to place down by discarding a specific amount of cards in yoiur hand. The Objective of the game is to get 12 buildings built and get the most points. Many cards will be layed down at some point in the game.The way I think I will be creating the game is by Creating a Class for the Deck which will use a class for the Card. I would like the Card Class to somehow create a picture box of the cards image on the form which will hold all the other cards being displayed.

VS 2010 Creating A Game Of Pairs As A Project

Apr 26, 2012

I'm having a little trouble creating a game of pairs as a project.Basically I've got to the point where I can start a game, layout a bunch of cards in a grid, 6x6, and then have a way of matching the pairs together. First of all I used a For loop to assign the cards into a two dimensional array. They are pictureboxes however so when a user clicks on 2 cards, checking them to see if they match has become confusing. I've tried to stuff like this for example but it's not working: [code] This doesn't work because it can't compare the picture boxes stored to the array slot. Is there any clever person with a way around this? Or that can think of a way to compare them. The pictureboxes kinda need to stay like there though :/

Creating File To Record And Display Best Score From Each Game?

Nov 2, 2010

To clarify - I'm building a simple game in visual basic and I'm trying to create a simple file to record and display the "Best Score" from each game. Actually there are four levels in this game (each one is on a different form) - I'm trying to save the best score from each level to display in a separate Game Stats form. Therefore I creating a datatable on one form, but then trying to get all my other forms to access it.

But now I get a new DBNull error message in part of code not of my making - NewGameDataSet.Designer.vb
Error Message = "The value for column 'BestScoreEasy' in table 'GameTable' is DBNull."
Does this mean I need another New Statement somewhere?
