While learning C# in high school, I decided to take what I learned (which was admittedly pretty basic at the time) and make something interesting out of it. I've always been a pretty huge fan of the Pokémon games, so I decided to try and see if I could make a simple battle/catching simulator between two Pokémon.
The goal of this game can be anything you want! You can choose to simply battle the opposing Pokémon and see who wins or decide to catch the Pokémon; you make your own rules. Maybe if you're really lucky, you'll come across an even rarer version of the opposing Pokémon...who knows?
NOTE: This program can only be run on the Windows operating system.
In order to play this game, please visit this link to download an executable that can be run on your local machine. Rest assured, this is just a simple Windows form app and will not harm your computer in any way.
This game was built as a basic Windows form app, so all of your options will be represented as buttons in the window. The buttons operate as follows:
- "A" button - Advances the dialog so that the next event can take place
- "Restart" button - Restarts the game
- Any other button - Selects the attack or item to be used during your turn (this must be followed up with the A button)
In order for the game to run smoothly, please remember to continually press the A button until it disappears. This will ensure that the dialog advances correctly. (Yeah, I know, not exactly user friendly. Cut me some slack, I was in high school.)
