hi, im looking for some free software to let me build a game. its simple, as its my first try, but i want to have a 500X500 black box, and on the black box, i want to put in white lines. onmouseover, the mouse disappears, or is 1 black pixel, and when it hits a white line, you get game over. i want to put about 40 levels on. So, would i code this like a webpage, in HTML, or would there be a program to use? please help, Pingu

It took me 2 days to find how to make a program that says "Hello World!" in a ms-dos prompt. If you need any basic help pm me, I've made text editors but not games, really. |

Have you got a C compiler yet? You'll need one to make it into a program, there's mircale c which is small for what it is, use google to find it.

I was learning C before, but I never figured out how to create a fully fledged game... Flash would be your best option. And for a game like that, you might be able to do it with javascript! |

I editted your code/quote ![]() Not sure if you need to inculde another file now, I think you don't. This will make it show for 2,5 seconds. The program/script will auto terminate when its done by default. (Pretty sure there is also a one-liner that will make it wait until the users hits enter before continue-ing, but dunno that one. me == C-n00b ^^ ) Comment @ post below (this it to much spamm-alike to make a new post for )Just guess what makes gamemaker.nl so good Ok, I personally hate that program, but still, gotta wub .nl^^ |
