I just posted my first project online, so I wanted to spread the word so people can check it out. It's actually my second project, but the first one that is pretty much complete. It's a memory matching game, where you flip cards over to make matches. I added a couple of elements to make it more interesting though. You can choose to make matches of sets of 2 or 3 cards, and you can play single-player for score or two-player head-to-head to see who can make more matches.
The game is fairly simple to operate, use the keyboard for all of the menus, then click the card sprites with the mouse to flip them over. One feature that I added that I think is cool is that you get to enter the names of the players, and then there is a high score list that records the best scores and prints them at the end of the game.
One thing I like about this project is that if you want to personalize it, you can redo the card costumes and put people's faces on them, or pictures of your favorite stuff or whatever. If you do copy this game and personalize it, please let me know so I can see what cool changes people have implemented.
The game is basically self-contained, so if you follow the instructions and quit the game using the menus, you never have to click the green flag or close the game and reopen it to get it started. If you do get stuck in a section of the game, hold the Down Arrow key and press the Space Bar, and you will be rebooted to the game's intro sequence to start over.
Please let me know if you enjoyed the game, and if you have any recommendations for improvements.
Thanks!
