***Need Instructions for Card Matching Game***

CreativeJuicesEntertainment

I am wanting to make a card matching game, but I do not understand how to do it in GS. If someone could please help me out I would appreciate it. I need to be able for the cards to randomize every time played and also function as any other matching card game would (click on a card, show the other side, click on another one, go back to other side if wrong, make both disappear if they match, and a score/timer for how fast they can do it if possible). Thanks in advance for anyone that helps. Have a nice day.

The fine folks at GSHelper have a great template that might help you out -

Feel free to ping @TshirtBooth as well, as he's the head honcho over there and he wrote the template..


You can also check out the template created by Darren and his crew over at DeepBlueApps -

That one's $.99 but it might suit your needs as well..

Here's one little tip. I made a memory game and I think it's very difficult (or impossible?) to have a truly random card shuffle each time. In the end I think the best way is to have a table with say 50 or 100 possible card orders and then randomly picking one of those columns before the 'shuffle' with some kind of rule not to repeat the same order twice in a row.

Yeah.... Def. get one of the templates. They are an AMAZING start and if you poke around them, they are an even better teaching tool. Good luck.

The link to the gshelper template is broken or it's been removed. Does anyone still have it?
