Snake Ladder by woomar This is an implementaion of the famous Snake Ladders board game known as "Gyan chauper" in India and "Chutes and Ladders" in the United States , in arabic its called "ÇáÓáã æÇáÍíÉ". //---------------------------<>-------------------------------- Game info: Players : 2 players (the board game can be up to 4 AFAIK) Die : one (could be two in the board version) Boards : 1-Ready Boards (3 of them) 2-Custom Boards (randomize snake and ladders position with different templates) Mode : 1-Player vs Player. 2-Player vs CPU. Extras : 1-Three different Backgrounds 2-Player manager (edit name,delete player,add player ...etc) //---------------------------<>-------------------------------- Below info is for Developers : Developed using : Visual Basic 6. External Libraries : 1-Bitblt 2-sndplay Database : Simple data control. Ram usage : about 174mb (all assets are loaded at one time) Positioning Mechanism : every snake , ladder , the player's piece has its own image/animation images that are placed in offsets relative to the main board , some mechansim were used to handle this (you will see it in the code) , I have it working on (1360x768) and (1024x768) resolution with no problem. Where was the bitblt used ? It was used only in the board animation and the background , other stuff used the "picture" attribute which means load all the way from the HDD , which may(or must actually) cause some flickering. Summary of operations that has been used : 1-Drawing (bitblt) 2-Playing Sounds (sndplay) 3-Handling files (open and close) 4-Simple Database operations through the Database Control. 5-Dynamic positioning. //---------------------------<>-------------------------------- Very Important Note(s): 1-some of the sound effects that have been used , I forgot where did I get them from but I am sure that when I used the search engines I used words like "Free license sound effects". 2-The main board picture , the pieces and the wood texture were also downloaded through search engines. So , I don't own the : 1-Main board picture (the custom ones that i made are edited from the original one) 2-Sounds . 3-Player's pieces. 4-Wood texture.
