xBrowse-Memory, something to Relax ( UPDATE 3.1 new )

[ukoenig]

Hello,

A friend of mine still needed a Birthday-present for his Son.
I created a xBrowse-memory-game, because his Son likes this Game very much.
BRAINTRAINING ( not only for Kids )

The Computer-game gives more Fun than the Card-game, because of many extra Functions.
There is still some Finetuning needed, because it is a Game for Kids
and must be hard protected against Crashes.

Functions :
1. Up to 4 Players
There is a Counter for Trials and Goals.
Sample : Player 3 means to know Image-positions.
If he finds a Image-pair he gets a Goal, otherwise + 1 to the Trial-counter

2. Game-creator
change any of the 15 Images of a Game

3. Rearange Images in Preview- or Cover-mode
You can define the Rearange-preview ( Image hidden or shown )
The selected Status is saved to a INI
Hidden, without Preview is very difficult, because You don't know any Positions
after the Image-rearange.

4. Quick Game-changer from Mainscreen
There are 10 Quick-buttons, to change the Game.

Maybe You like it

The Overview :
I created 5 of 10 possible Games.

1. A Image-game



The Usage :

Find a pair of equal Images. Equal cards will stay visible, unequal cards
will be covered again with the next Player-selection :



2. A Brush-game



3. A Button-game ( very difficult, because You have to remember Color and Symbol )



4. Using Symbols



5. Also very difficult



The Game-creator



Best Regards
Uwe

Nice job.

[hua]

Looks nice Uwe

[Eoeo]

Nice job... Antonio must insert this game into package !!!

[ukoenig]

Silvio,

No Problem to include it. It is the decision of Antonio.

1. It is a nice Sample to show, how xBrowse can master different Image-situations.
2. A nice Entertainment for the Family and their Children.
I think everybody knows that Game and Rules.

Best Regards
Uwe

I added some new Functions :

Full new Release 2.3 Download ( 7.3 MB )
12 created Games included
NO Updates to Install !!!

http://www.pflegeplus.com/fw_downloads/memory3.zip

Before You start, You have to HIDE the Images
( You can define the hidden-status at STARTUP, in the Config-section )
Player-mode works different. There You have to choose the next Player
to select a Image-pair.

A Training-mode allows to use just 1 Player ( all Player-buttons are hidden ).
After the 3. Image-selection,
eaqual Images ( pair ) will stay on Screen otherwise covered again.
( No Player to be selected )

also possible wrong usages are blocked with Messages.

A single Player ( training-mode)



The new Config-section



Best Regards
Uwe

[ukoenig]

Christian,
thanks for the Response.
I will have a look at this.

2. prevent to expand the window of the game.

DEFINE DIALOG oDlg1 FROM 5, 0 TO 695, 1010 TITLE "MEMORY 1.1 / 12-Sept-2012" PIXEL
oDlg1:nStyle += (WS_MINIMIZEBOX + WS_MAXIMIZEBOX)
Got it working with the Solution from Mr. Rao !!!

Sound will be included in next Release.

A little Bonus ( Game6 ) :
( something, the Kids will like )
Download :
( please move the included DBF to the Main-directory )

http://www.pflegeplus.com/fw_downloads/game6.zip

Started with first Changes :
Added a Sysmenu, stopped resizing, added Sound and a Reset-button ( Training-mode )
some more will follow.



Best Regards
Uwe

[ukoenig]

The Final-release ( I hope )
My first try, to create a Game.
Searching in the Internet, I found only Online-Solutions.
Also they didn't offer all the different Settings, I defined in the Setup-section.
Creating Your own Sets, Sound-define, Game-speed, Auto-player-selection, Training-mode ....

Many new Functions added :
1. Soundsupport
2. Delay-time to display selected Images
-- a Value of 1500 is normal. With Kids, a Value of 2500 will be OK ( slow )
3. System-menu added
4. Autochange of Player after the 2. selected Image
-- the activated Player changes to red
-- no Player to be clicked anymore
-- You can define the Start-player with Button-click
5. many new Game-sets added
6. New Preview-mode added
7. The reached Points calculated in %



The Config-section :



New Sets :
Buildings, Cars, Fantasy, Bridges



Flowers and Birds



Best Regards
Uwe

[ukoenig]

New :
Different Languages and Game-scrolling
( Maybe to include a Language file, to define any Language ? )
Preview / test-mode selected from Setup-dialog completed.
Changing a Game, breaks the Test-mode ( Training-mode is used ).

A Question :
what is the best Solution for Multilanguage-support ( see words on Bottom ) ?
Using a INI, where the user can translate the used words and saving the Fields to a Array,
or another, better Solution. I couldn't find something in the Forum.

Marco,

Thank You very much for the Response

some fixes with new Multilanguage-suport
Language.ini ( English )
German.ini ( German )

A INI-sample :

[Language]
_Game=Spiel
_Trials=Versuche
_Scores=Punkte
_Select=Auswahl
_Player=Spieler
_Training=Training
Button-text can have a included Accelerator &

Now You can rearange the Images in covered mode.
this is the hardest and the chance will be equal for all Players
because there is no Information of any Image-Positions.

Download ( Update 2.3 ) 1.3 MB :

http://www.pflegeplus.com/fw_downloads/MemUpd2.zip

Full Version 2.3 is updated as well !!!

Download ( 7.3 MB ) :

Hello,

here are some Game-extensions.

Download :
( only EXE and modified Game.dbf updated )
Games.dbf includes a new field TITLE, to define a game.
Just replace these files in Your old installed version.
Because of the new browser-selection, You can create Your own games as many You like.
Create a set of family-photos or any other favorite Images.
Some more ideas and improvements are welcome.
I will create some nice backgrounds, to change the overall optic.

http://www.pflegeplus.com/fw_downloads/Memory4.zip

Whats new :

1. select a game from a Browser



2. Add Titles
3. Add / delete Games to the browser

Adding a new Game :
a) Create a subdirectory and include the images
b) Add the game with + to the browser
c) define the 15 Images, brush and cover.
be shure it is complete ( 15 selected cards, background and cover )
before using the < save-button > !!!
Using - delete, only deletes a game from the browser, nothing from harddisk



Best Regards
Uwe

Update Release 3.1 with some new options, recompiled

I noticed 2409 views, it seems to be interesting.

Trainer-modus with a saved HIGHSCORE
Added a xBrowse-border / frame.
The best is 15 ( 15 pairs a point on each try )
My best was 32 I reached for the moment.
You can add Your own games from inside the config-section ( used image-size 120 x 120 pixel )

A good brain-training !!!

Some new Game-styles added just select one of the 14 predefined games

Change from TRAINER-mode to 1, 2, 3 or 4 players
Just remember with LANGUAGE.ini, You can change / define the language

More ideas are welcome !!!
