Thank you Rook, I like it!
Maybe you can provide the possibility to switch off the sound?
Then it would be close to perfect.

What is the goal of the game? I made this:



There is a big blue square in the upper right corner, but nothing happened.
I expected the program to give me at least 500 points.

So what do you exactly mean by:

Make a square like in the picture in the first post...

It is a bit harder... my record is 1 click (but that was a lucky draw at the starting position!) I was showing my wife the game and she said... if it is so easy why did you write it?

Then she tried and took 37 clicks... it was "The Devil Game" after that!

Turning off sound? OK... can't you just MUTE the sounds in your system? It only makes a "tick" sound : D

I will see what I can do!

@Icesoft: Is yours done screen in window or is it just a window?

I see now what I'm supposed to do, thanks.

can't you just MUTE the sounds in your system?

Sometimes I'd like to watch internet TV or hear some music on the PC while I'm playing. Switching off the sound on my system would not make me happy then.

Download it NOW... it has the MUTE button... press it and NO SOUNDS!

See pic changed at first post.

nice play, nice grafix (PS?)

- I haven't got ANY sound (except those of the MsgBox, and those suck -> wrong #MB_Icon_)
- when I clear the board, it sais "Bad luck, resetting", but the board stays empty.
- sometimes a click is registered when I did none
- when I clicked the "OK" button to the suceed-message, this click was also registered on the board, the board wasn't restarted.

Cool, Rook!
However ... I see the new pic, but when downloading I still get the old version.

Same here (using the old version).

PBarrows using a WindowedScreen(...)

@Kaeru: Weird! Let me see whats what!

I didn't use anything but the default messagebox in PB without the icons!

OK as far as the DL goes... that has been fixed!

Sound: I used init sound... maybe the tick is too low on your system for you to hear?

Issues... witht he square?

- sometimes a click is registered when I did none

The board doesn't restart until yu press the rest button.

yeah.. the additinal click thing... I have a gaming mouse that updates 1800 times a second... you wanna talk about additional clicking!!!

These are some issues with the way PB controls and reads from the mouse. I have asked for them to be fixed... I have asked for extended mouse abiity... but as long as all versions have to agree we are limited by the other OS limitations!

The board will not restart automatically. You have to push the [START OVER] button!

when I clicked the "OK" button to the suceed-message, this click was also registered on the board, the board wasn't restarted.

I think I know how to fix a focus issue however... let me chunk that in there!

Got the new version.
Thanks again Rook, very nice game!

i c... the default warning sound is nasty... (has to be.. )

... for such like in the game, #MB_ICONINFORMATION would be more fitting.

I know that it's everyones own thing how to profile the system sounds,
but I think most may have a rather nasty one for a warning and a rather nice one for an information...

(in fact, even #MB_ICONEXCLAMATION sounds nicer than standard warning on my profile... )
