Clickmania Game[^]

I need samegame, clickmania, cubecrush, however you may call it. I need the game, hopefully in vb.net...atleast a basic structire, so that I can improvise on it..I have until 22nd dec to do this.... All I know is a bit of VB.Net, but not enough to create a full game... I referred to SameGame tutorial by Ben Marchant, but Visual C++ with MFC is something you can't learn in 10 days..

http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/game_programming/same_game_part1.html[^]

I loved the Clickmania game by aaccoobb, but its in C#, a language I'm not acquainted with. If I could even get any directions as to how to convert this game to VB.Net, it'll work.

Please help!

Edit:

Yep, it seems I'd have to make a game from scratch. I converted the whole project using SharpDevelop 4.4(I had to install 3 other things before installing it), conversion was successful, but when I tried to open the solution, I got an error and it didn't open. Any insight on that?

Also, I'd like to create a game like the SameGame by Ben Marchant.. but only with vb.net.... adding the blocksize and blockcount features, undo-redo, 5 levels of 3,4,5,6,and 7 colors, and the like.

For this, I'd need to add the buttons to the form via the code.. maybe using arrays to set up the 15x15 board(how?), and I'd need to assign colors to the buttons (again, not using the button1.backcolor property, I guess), randomly set up or shuffle the buttons, know the color and location of each button(which button is next to which colored button) and all..

Sorry for my basic knowledge, but the only way I could hope for some answers is by being brutally honest.

If only I could get some elaborated pointers to tutorials or books that could help, I'd be grateful. And if I get help from here itself, even better. I really need to get this done fast.

Thank you for taking the time to read and reply. If any of you want, I'd provide the convertedToVb.net project so that you could check out the error.

Next time, start work earlier. If we do your homework, you will learn nothing.

Please create your own game and then "improvise". And working with .NET takes at least some knowledge or C#. Besides, you can automatically translate between C# and VB.NET.

it's probably going to take you significantly less time to understand c#, than it is to port, and debug to VB.net

If you know a bit of VB.NET you know that same bit of C#.
You can convert directly if you absolutely have to.

Start earlier next time.

If you need it fast, go to oDesk.com, elance.com or guru.com (or any other freelancer site) and pay for it.
