Is the good old-fashioned board game truly dead, now that most games are played on computers? Well, fear not! Board Game Construction Kit is an attempt to recreate the whole board game experience on your PC. When BGCK is completely done, you'll be able to roll dice, move tokens, or put your oppenents in Jail just like in the classic board games of yore.
Board Game Construction Kit is a small example of how to use DirectX7 to display a scrolling playfield. Currently, BGCK creates a random board from parameters you specify, and lets you scroll around it to see what it's like. Scrolling parameters can be adjusted too. You can also substitute your own graphics to customize the look!

Just open the project and run it! Be sure to double-click the .vbp so that the App.Path is set correctly. Make sure that the supporting graphics are in the same folder as the .exe too.
