Nice TicTacToe Game - Developed by AceInfinity [Source & Release]

[AceInfinity]

So I got bored and was fooling around with arrays and whatnot in Visual Studio VB.net and figured i'd make a game

There's lots of good content in here for people just learning out, so i'm releasing the source with this as well for anybody that wants to take a look and learn from it. This source is packed with lots of good code that can help a beginner out. Arrays, lists, basic LINQ, and classes.

Have fun playing and learning from the source

:cheers:

Thanks for sharing mate.
Looks fun.

This is actually one of the first games i've made too lol, I'm not big on game development, it never interested me, but the concept behind this game seemed fun when I was fooling around with arrays. People should be able to learn a lot from this source.

For the project download anyone that wants it will have to PM me.

Cool game.
Thanks for sharing the Source Code.
