I need a simple game that has panels and layouts. I really cant think of one. I was thinking about space invaders of some sort, but it's too much work ~_~. can someone give me an idea?

USING CAPS IS WHAT THE COOL PEOPLE DO! WHAT ABOUT SNAKE, OR A CARD GAME.

I doubt anyone will be helping you out judging from the fact that you said "but it's too much work". Programming isn't just something you do in 10 minutes if you want to do it right. GTFO caps monster.

i suggest you start working with java, and post your problems/doubts here and we will help you out

PD: an ide for java, called NetBeans, has a pretty easy to use framework..maybe try that?

I was cool with helping; i personally hate java. I was just not too impressed with his all caps title. That was unnecessary. It also is nothing java specific, he just needs an idea.

I know you're cool with helping pyro, you were helpful when I was teaching myself the basics of Python a few months back. Came in handy to help my friends in their engineering classes at school

I also agree, all caps FTL.

Java is amazing.
I'm actually working on a project right now, Touhou.
But if you want some ideas read this: http://fivedots.coe.psu.ac.th/~ad/jg/

thank you! that was helpful. i think i know what to do now. and btw to guy up there, snake is too easy. i could literally code that in 30 minutes. thing is i needa make my game educational and have some trivia questions every so often so snake doesnt work.

Wow... not even going to take the time to type out my name.

Fuck you.

[Donaldmax]

im sorry

[danielfromburn]

so what idea are you using?

[huevoquilmes]

i just finished a project on a game called 1914 (similar to risk, but WWI oriented). It was pretty cool, and has some king of Artificial Intelligence going, but simple one.. maybe check that out? i did it in c++ tho

[1337hunt3r]

If you still need an idea, you can always make a tower defense. There are varying degrees of complexity depending on what features you want to implement and I'm sure it uses plenty of panels and layouts.
It's definitely doable; I've played a couple TD's my friends have made.

I had to create an educational game in Java.. What's with these people asking for educational games?? I basically recreated Maths Nightmare (3 levels of complexity, 4 categories) without knowing it. I created an animated gif of a sheep jumping a fence, and also of flipping over and dying and spilling blood everywhere :| I needed to use threads to have a timer going as well. Some other ideas from the rest of my class were Hangman (guess it teaches you how to spell? No idea), identifying parts of the body, Jeopardy. Whatever, mine was demonstrated on Career Day at the univ, so it's a good idea

The Math game is pretty easy, and if you need to base it on theory, you can use Kumon math, and look for worksheets with questions you can use.

Also, don't use GridBagLayout. I used BorderLayout and FlowLayout the most.

Coding a version of Tetris is a cool weekend project not too hard in Python or Java

I recently had the huge urge to make a side scrolling RPG (like Maplestory, sort of) but I can never finish my projects so I never decided to start.
You should make one so I can play it.

I've just started with JAVA pretty much and I thought rather than starting a new thread I'd tag on someone elses. Basically I was wondering possibly the same as the OP here, does anybody have any basic JAVA programs they've written that they could send me? preferably with the code commented so I could just read over it a few times and get used to how the program/s are constructed and how they flow. PM me if anyone does

I don't have any completed code on me atm since I'm on a new laptop, but here's a link to the projects and homeworks I had in a class using java. I hope the skeleton and partially completed code can help you a bit until I get back on my desktop or someone else sends something along!

i have the code for the program i did for my guide (check siggie). Its not complicated at all, but it isnt basic java.. if you are interested i can post it or pm it to you

Honestly I dont understand why you would make a post about your program (unrelated to topic) that you did for your guide (unrelated to topic) and it ISNT in java (unrelated to a topic talking about java)

[Darkthrone]

Thanks for that link sylphique that's the kind of stuff I'm looking for

first of all, dark asked for a program in java. So, i think any program in java would do, so the program i did cualifies for that.. and I did do it java o-0 where did you get that i didnt? i said it wasnt basic, has some stuff to connect to webpages and that, but its java
