Introduction

BackMan is one of most popular games in the world. It is a simple and beautiful game. In this game, I use rules to find and catch yellow solid. Yellow solid represents the player and others represents adversary. You should find the first path to help you to run away from the adversary.

Back Man

Game explanation:

• Start Game
  • Welcome screen and sound effect, some simple graphics to login game.
  • End step login start game, the solid yellow in center of screen and adversary in left corner you need to use hot keys to run away from adversary.
  • Hot keys:

    UP	Down	Left	Right
    w	s	d	a

• Loss
  • If incomplete, the stage "loss", you now replay the stage and lose all points from your balance.
• Win
  • If you complete the stage, increase your balance of points and go to the later stage, maximum number of adversaries is four.

Using the Code

Monster member function initial "creation monster" and find how many monster numbers there are depending on stage, you now play it .

void CBackManDlg::Monster()
{
 if(Stage1==true)
 {
       CClientDC Mon1(this);
       CBrush Color1;
       Color1.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(255,0,0));
       Mon1.SelectObject(&Color1);
       Mon1.Ellipse(B1,Up1,B2,Up2);
       CBrush Eyes1;
       Eyes1.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,0));
       Mon1.SelectObject(&Eyes1);
       //eyes
       Mon1.Ellipse(B1+10,Up1+5,B2-20,Up2-20);
       Mon1.Ellipse(B1+20,Up1+5,B2-10,Up2-20);
       //
       Mon1.Rectangle(B1+5,Up1+15,B2-5,Up2-10);
       static int t1=0;

       if(t1%2==0)
            {
        Mon1.Ellipse(B1+5,Up1+15,B2-5,Up2-5);      
       }
       t1++;
    }

     if(Stage2==true)
    {
       CClientDC Mon2(this);
       CBrush Color2;
       Color2.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,255));
       Mon2.SelectObject(&Color2);
       Mon2.Ellipse(C1,U1,C2,U2);
       CBrush Eyes2;
       Eyes2.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,0));
       Mon2.SelectObject(&Eyes2);
       //eyes
       Mon2.Ellipse(C1+10,U1+5,C2-20,U2-20);
       Mon2.Ellipse(C1+20,U1+5,C2-10,U2-20);
       //
       Mon2.Rectangle(C1+5,U1+15,C2-5,U2-10);
       static int t2=0;

       if(t2%2==0)
       {
        Mon2.Ellipse(C1+5,U1+15,C2-5,U2-5);    
       }
      t2++;
    }

    if(Stage3==true)
    {
       CClientDC Mon3(this);
       CBrush Color3;
       Color3.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,255));
       Mon3.SelectObject(&Color3);
       Mon3.Ellipse(S1,N1,S2,N2);
       CBrush Eyes3;
       Eyes3.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,0));
       Mon3.SelectObject(&Eyes3);
       //eyes
       Mon3.Ellipse(S1+10,N1+5,S2-20,N2-20);
       Mon3.Ellipse(S1+20,N1+5,S2-10,N2-20);
       //
       Mon3.Rectangle(S1+5,N1+15,S2-5,N2-10);
       static int t3=0;

       if(t3%2==0)
       {
           Mon3.Ellipse(S1+5,N1+15,S2-5,N2-5);    
       }
      t3++;
    }
        
    if(Stage4==true)
    {  
       CClientDC Mon4(this);
       CBrush Color4;
       Color4.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(255,0,0));
       Mon4.SelectObject(&Color4);
       Mon4.Ellipse(CC1,UU1,CC2,UU2);
       CBrush Eyes4;
       Eyes4.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,0));
       Mon4.SelectObject(&Eyes4);
       //eyes
       Mon4.Ellipse(CC1+10,UU1+5,CC2-20,UU2-20);
       Mon4.Ellipse(CC1+20,UU1+5,CC2-10,UU2-20);
       //
       Mon4.Rectangle(CC1+5,UU1+15,CC2-5,UU2-10);
       static int t4=0;

       if(t4%2==0)
       {
           Mon4.Ellipse(CC1+5,UU1+15,CC2-5,UU2-5);
       }
       t4++;
    }
}

Point member function to set points on game you have eat it.

void CBackManDlg::Point()
{
    CClientDC oc(this);

    if(ppoint1==true)
    oc.Ellipse(40,25,50,35);
    
    if(ppoint2==true)
    oc.Ellipse(100,25,110,35);
    
    if(ppoint3==true)
    oc.Ellipse(140,25,150,35);
    
    if(ppoint4==true)
    oc.Ellipse(180,25,190,35);
    
    if(ppoint5==true)
    oc.Ellipse(220,25,230,35);

    if(ppoint6==true)
         oc.Ellipse(260,25,270,35);
    
    if(ppoint7==true)
    oc.Ellipse(300,25,310,35);
    .
    .
    .

BackMan member function - it exactly creates a monster and sets path to it.

voidCBackManDlg::BackMan()
{
 //Mon1
     if(Stage1==true)
    {
        //Down
        if( Up1< y1 ) 
        {    
            if(Up1==50)
            {
            if(B1==25 || B1==85 || B1==375 || B1==430)
             {
                Up1+=55;
                Up2+=55;
             }            
            }
            .
            .
            .          

OnPaint member function loads my setting "Graphics":

void CBackManDlg::OnPaint() 
{
    if(IsIconic())
    {
        CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting

        SendMessage(WM_ICONERASEBKGND, (WPARAM) dc.GetSafeHdc(), 0);

        // Center icon in client rectangle
        int cxIcon = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXICON);
        int cyIcon = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYICON);
        CRect rect;
        GetClientRect(&rect);
        int x = (rect.Width() - cxIcon + 1) / 2;
        int y = (rect.Height() - cyIcon + 1) / 2;

        // Draw the icon
        dc.DrawIcon(x, y, m_hIcon);
    }
    else
    {
        CDialog::OnPaint();
        CClientDC b(this);
        CBrush sh;
        sh.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,255,255));
             b.SelectObject(&sh);
        b.Rectangle(0,0,500,400);
    }
}

The Future

Here is what I would like to do with the game in the future:

• Create different style-sheets to apply different themes / looks
• Keep high scores
  • Got to validate users with some sort of login
  • Use server side scripting (probably ASP.NET / C# ... maybe a web service?) to save high scores
  • Keep track of individual and overall high scores
• Maybe make the game into an HTML Component (HTC)

History

• This application was created in 2005, and deployed in 2006.
