Maze Game

Introduction

This is a maze game that I wrote when I was learning C# and Breadth First Search algorithm. The goal of the game is to find a path that connects the Start point (red square) and the End point (dark green square). You use the arrow keys to move your indicator (blue square). The path is marked with light green squares. If you get stuck, just click “Game” -> “Solution” to view the solution. Here is a screenshot of my “Maze Game”:

Card Memory Game

Introduction

This is a card game that I wrote when I was learning how to program C#. The goal of the game is to clear the table by pairing all the cards. It has three difficulty levels: “Easy”, “Medium”, and “Hard”. Different level contains different numbers of cards on the table. At the “Hard” level, you will deal with 48 cards, which is pretty challenging. Also, the back image of the cards can be selected from “Island”, “Fish”, “Moon Flower”, “Space”, and “Toy Cars”. Below is a screenshot of my “Memory Card Game”:

How to Play

To play a game, choose “File->New Game” and select a level. After the cards are dealt, click on any card and that card will flip to let you see its face. Click on a second card. This second card will flip to show its face too. If the two cards are identical, they will disappear. Otherwise they will flip back so that you won’t be able to see their faces. Keep clicking on the cards until all the cards are paired and disappear.

IE Address Bar Editor

Introduction

If you want to remove un-wanted URLs that Internet Explorer (IE) stored in the drop-down address bar, you’ll have to open the Windows registry editor, find the URLs that IE stored in the registry, delete un-wanted entries, and re-order the rest URLs. If you do this manually, the whole process is a little tedious and dangerous (messing with Windows registry is always dangerous).

To make this task easier, I wrote a small program called “IE Address Bar Editor” using Visual C#. This little tool reads the URLs that IE stored in the Windows registry. Then you can easily modify (delete, edit, and re-order) these URLs and save the changes back to the Windows registry. Below is a screenshot of my program.

Download

I have tested this program on three computers running Windows XP and it worked fine on all three PCs. You are welcome to download and try it out. The program can be downloaded here. After downloading the file, unzip it. Then double click “IEAddressBarEditor.exe” to run. If you find any bugs please let me know. Thanks for looking!
