Pipes is a little game I made. What you have to do is connect 2 pipe ends.
Here's the link:
http://www.geocities.com/voodoocpp/Pipes.zip(might need to right click and save as)
It's only 80kb so why not download :) .
I would like to hear your comments on this game no matter if they are good or bad.
If you have any suggestions, found any bugs or spelling mistakes please let me somehow know.
I plan on adding musik.

ok its working now. looks pretty good! its pretty challenging actually. did you use just the win api to make that or did you use direct x or something?

If I remember right that's music in German. It doesn't matter anyways because I'm sure you can figure out what it is.

I'm willing to bet he used pure WinAPI. Also nice program.

Wow, that's quit difficult, especially in 3 minutes. My only suggestion would be to make the water visible while it flows, and maybe move the game downwards away from the text at the top, or make a seperate score board, or something.
Very fun! :)

I always have problems to know in which language it takes a k and in which a c. Anyway thanks for pointing that out. I'll correct that spelling mistake.

Only good old GDI.

You can set the time in the options. It can range from 0:30min to 20:0min.

Sorry but it was only intended to run under Windows.

this game is incredibly addicting in case you dident allready know and here are some comments after pipes being the only game i have played for the past 3 days at least:
1.maybey make something that you can click when your done case like you set it for 10 minutes and get it done in 3 minutes, or make it check to see if all the pipes are connected-- it gets boring waiting around for time to run out. unless that was your plan to make people use shorter amounts of time.i duno
2.maybey make it so a user can add there own backround/pipeset i dont know how easy this would be but it probly wouldent be too hard if the user dident mess with the dimentions
3.maybey have a water noise when the waters flowing- not essential but probly couldent hurt either.
4.maybey have a windowed mode in case someone wants to play and chat on msn at the same time(TIME WASTERS!)
5.maybey make it so you can make the "pipe map" larger and smaller
my lowest score was -206. :lol:
anyway ya this game is really addicting.

I'm having problems geting the MCI to loop. I got it so that it will loop but cut of a bit of the sound at the end, obviously that wouldn't be very good in this case.

That's not so simple since the prog doesn't pass the windowDC to windows so redrawing the window is a bit of a problem. If you really need you can switch to windows.

That's a bit of a problem because I hard coded the dimesions into the prog.

:lol: I'll see if I can fix that.
I have uploaded a new version. Same download link as above.
