Hello msdn community, I am working on a school project with VB 2010 Express.
For our project we have to create a game using things we have learned throughout this year and things we havent learned. We also need something unique to show off to fellow classmates, and were allowed to look up tutorials and such.
One of our earlier assignments was drawing an ellipse where the mouses location was and continuing to draw on mouse_move events with a random color being selected each time another ellipse was drawn. This is very simple to do, and I love the ability to change the colors of the ellipse in many different ways.
So for my project Im doing sort of a "target shooter" and I want to avoid using .gifs and images for my targets. I also want to include combos that will change the mood of the game as you progress...
As for that I need to know if there is a way, and how, to use Ellipses as an object or Have the Ellipse align its self with an object as it moves, or have an Ellipse as that objects image, etc. Anything of this sort will do!
Anyone have any ideas or examples that would set me in the right direction? Im sure I can figure out the color changing part, but I havent found a way to make Ellipses dynamic and move.
