Suggestions needed for making a small game
Hi guys :wave:
I'm trying to create a small game in VB2010. The gameplay is as follows:
Code:
civilians would walk/stand in a room/street and suddenly an evil character would pop from the ground/wall.
This evil character would suddenly vanishes too. So, the player has to shoot it to kill the character.
The evil character, civilians, etc. would be random. Also, there would be sound effects too. That is the popping up of the evil character, it's voice, the civilians voice, etc.
I'm trying to make it as simple as possible but without degrading the quality of the game play.
I think, I could somewhat create the graphics for the characters, scenes, etc. and can get the sound effects recorded.
So, the difficult part is,
- [ ] how could I make it a smoother for playing the game ?
- [ ] what would be the best way to do animations ?
- [ ] Creating a GIF and placing it in the picturebox and moving it ?
- [x]how to play the music in background and at the same time play sound effects on certain instance ? Edit:solution
Any ideas ? :)
Thanks :wave:

If your plan is to do this with GDI+, you are going to have a hell of a time. The best option is to use XNA.
