Aphabet Game [SOURCE and .EXE]

[Rich2189]

Some you you may remember this game from the Atari, I thought I would have a go at this game making stuff so here's my first VB game.

Instructions

- well just when you see a letter press that letter on the keyboard to make it disappear. If any letters hit the bottom you loose. 10 points per letter, 100 for free fall letters.

-If you press a key which has no letter on the screen then all the letters will go into free fall

-Letters closer to the bottom and in free fall have priority over other identical letters. i.e if you have 2 letter A's on the screen and you press A, the one closest to the bottom will be removed.

-The higher the level the more free fall letters you get, basically if you get past level 20 you deserve a medal. The higher the level the more letters at any one time there are on the screen. The higher the level the more letters you need to advance.

Version 2 contains a few bug fixes.

hey, do you think you could maybe share the coding you used? its an awesome game, for sure, but these are just little mix ups with some of the keys at times, and i want to see if i could pinpoint it, to make the game like perfect.

so, u think that would be cool?

All the VB code is in the zip file. Make any modifications you wish, just be sure to upload any changes you have made to this thread.

rich, major fault in your coding, when the game is paused, you can still type the letters, and therefore obtain points
