Is GUI involved in this code?

[@MaffeyZilog]

Great vid! Btw, may I ask what switches are you using in your keyboard? I've got a mix of BOX Navy and BOX Jade in my 'board but yours sound like you're getting more tactile feedback. I was going to switch mine out for BOX Royals but they're five pin and the GMMK only supports three pin switches. You can scalpel off the extra two pins but it's not a perfect solution by any means.

[@aneeshkumar2613]

After the game is over I want to assign a key so that the game restarts whenever that key is pressed. But I don't know how to do that. Pls help!!

[@jackdotpy4254]

@@aneeshkumar2613 You can put the game function in a "while" statement (basically a loop) and end the game with a blank console.readline(); so that the user has to press enter at the end of every game which would restart the loop.

[@ashupardhi5071]

You have gave me positive vibes bro..as a beginner in this field i am so confident after watching your project..

[@Sarstan]

Great tutorial. And it leaves plenty to play around with and add to. Like instead of having an end game for flying too high, I just changed it to if the box gets above a height, it just resets to that same height. Some other things for others to try are to change the pipe positions (a random range for the pipes to be set. Or if you're like me and have the pipes like the original game, set one's height then the other a set distance gap), make the bird rotate while rising or falling, changing the button press to have a gradual change in gravity instead of an instant shift and a constant press no longer works, and setting up a game start screen along with a button on gameover to return to that or play again immediately.

[@mooict]

Hi, these are great suggestions for this game. Thank you 😊

Bro the typing and clicking of your mouse and keyboard is so satisfying to hear for some reason

[@mooict]

lol thanks

[@davthemillionth]

instead of using pipe.Left < -150, you could use Pipe.Right < 0, which means that the offset inside the if statement gives a more user friendly control for how long they are offscreen

Hey, I am an old business app programmer, but have been curious about game programming since I was a kid. Back in the 80's, attempted to create space invaders on a TRS-80 Color Computer. It was such a disaster, I never tried game programming again. You, sir have shown me the way. This is an AWESOME first project. Not sure I'd ever think to bind the timer event to move stuff on the screen. Thanks for posting this.

[@lemillion6206]

Thx for this awesome video mate, really easy to follow and everything worked great for me! Wondering if you could help out with adding a "restart button"

[@mooict]

Hi you can make a restart button and make sure its disabled and hidden when the game starts, when the game is over you can run the click event from that button to reset the bird, pipes, score and time back to the their default positions and disable/make the button invisible from inside the event too. You can make the button visible again when the game over function runs. Have a go

[@monicaayala3644]

a shortcut if the restart button/method is too hard is to change to a second form and then comeback. Maybe you can use the second one like a menu

[@mooict]

Hi, pipeBottom.Left -= pipeSpeed means it will move the pipes x axis 8 pixels towards left of the screen with each interval of the timer. It updates on the screen so you could see how the pipes move towards the bird and then respawn on the right again. We did the same thing with the pipeTop.Left because they both will need to do the same animation.
