Lucky Nine
Card Game
Description
A cool desktop game I created with C# .NET and Photoshop. This, if I could remember, is the first game I ever created in our AI class. Playing it requires no skill. It is all based on luck. That is why it is called “Lucky Nine”. The player has a starting cash worth $10. The one who gets a card closer to 9 wins and takes the cash. The game ends when either the computer or the player has no more cash left.
To make the green rectangle look as if it were a poker table felt, I added a little grain effect with some shade appearing on the edges and it turned out looking fantastic. I intentionally made a skeuomorphic design instead of a completely flat UI. I added a glass reflection effect on most of the elements including the cards and each shape on the card. One noticeable disadvantage of making a game in C# Windows Forms is that stacking PictureBoxes containing images with transparent areas will look weird.
