    My best c++ console game

    Hi guys,
    I along with some of my friends are creating a game pack in C++. I have attached the partially completed game both in exe and cpp in the attached zip file along with the supporting files. The credit, exit and the partialy completed tic tac toe are the only parts working now.. Please have a look and give me suggestions on graphics and logic so that we can improve it...


    Thanx

    Note:- The corrupt zip file has been replaced with a working one now

    Thumbs up Cool

    That is a pretty cool program, I also like the menu. I was just wondering one thing. When I first run the program it starts in a maximized window. What code did you use to do this? I want it so the user doesn't have to push Alt+Enter, the window automatically maximizes. Can you help at all?

    Thank you in advance.

    here:
    Code:
    _asm{
    mov ax,13h
    int 10h
    }
    _asm{
    mov ax, 03h
    int 10h
    }

    Excellent Work,

    Some Coding style suggestions :

    --goto statements are kinda frowned upon as
    showing poor logic flow.

    --When comparing the same var "jhk" to multiple constant values
    like if(jkl==0x48)......, if(jkl==0x50).......... switch statements make code easier to follow.

    Looks great !

    Well i had to use goto since the design of the program did not allow me to transfer controll easily.. And i used the if statements instead of case since it made the validation easier.. ANd thaks for the comments.. It would be great if you guys can provide some logic for the other games..
    Thanks
    Bye

    Thanks,,
    The *.chr are the font files. SInce i have used many different kinds of text style in the graphics part of the program. . I have included these filese. Else the fonts will be the default which you will see not the one i specified while coding..
