Particle Quest
« on: August 05, 2015, 11:38:05 pm »
A game loosely based on the card game Eleusis to simulate deductive reasoning during scientific research.
The object is to find the particles that make up an alternate universe by deducing the secret rule that connects them. 
You can play alone or against AI.
The code is posted at http://www.2shared.com/file/V7meGTsx/ParticleQuest.html?
Once you've got the hang of the game, I encourage you to make your own secret rules and post them in this thread.
Please read the README file (in either Word or txt in the zipped www.2shared file) for more info.
A screen shot and the Word version of README is attached.

Here's an executable file with all the resources compiled on Code::Blocks to run on Windows 8.   The program still needs work, but I'll have to get back to that later.
Download the zip file at
http://www.2shared.com/file/IX_11QUS/ParticleQuestWindowsExecutable.html?
Open the file and double click on ParticleQuest2singleFile.exe. 
After playing the game and finding the secret rule, you have to hit escape to close the program and then run it again to play a different rule (the chance of repeating the same rule again is 1 out  of 10).  This lack of game flow is the part that needs fixing most.

My browser tells me not to visit the link. Maybe post your Code on GitHub oder so?

Sorry, I've got to learn how to use Github.
I chose 2Shared because it has a Trustworthiness score of Excellent on Web of Trust (for what that's worth), several other users on this website also post there, and it's easy to use, unlike what I saw on the tutorials about how to use Github.  I'm still unclear about how Github is any better protection against posting by someone with malicious intent.  But I've got a lot to learn and Github is on my to-do list.

I've been learning to use Xcode on a friend's Mac, and here's a downloadable OSX app for ParticleQuest posted on 2Shared:
