1. Create a new game
2. Click on a single tile, the timer should start
3. Create another new game but select it from the Game menu
4. The timer is now running in the background

Create the menu system. This task might make sense to be done after any new changes come to the menu infrastructure

Gather requirements. Create a document for how minesweeper works, do some research on this topic. Create a list of features that are to be implemented

The first click is always safe and reveals a number or an opening surrounded by numbers

This option should be in the debug menu, and it should be a mutually exclusive checkbox within the same group as the "Show Neighbours" debug option

Win a game.

The tiles that have bombs on them should be shown with a flag

The debugger should create a game board that gives the following.

• The menu option should give you the ability to toggle the visibility of buttons over the cells of the game
• The menu option should give you the ability to click a checkbox and be able to then place mines on a cell
• There needs to be a clear button that clears all the mines and all the numerals from the board

Create the basics of the game, include the gosling engine, make sure that it loads up with the current engine changes

When selecting on the marks menu items, you should now be able to mark question marks onto tiles.

The game ends when all the tiles that do not contain a mine are no longer available to be selected.

If all the mines touching a number flagged, you can press both buttons on that number to clear the remaining adjacent squares

Remove hard-coded text and add english translations

The top of the game should contain

1. The number of flags remaining
2. A game status button (smiley faces) and when clicked should restart the game
3. The number of seconds that has elapsed

On the board, the left-most counter will the number of mines on the board. Flagging a tile will reduce this number by one (1). This number can go into the negatives.

Clicking on a tile mine will cause all tiles with a mine to be shown. The clicked tile will have a background of red. All tiles that have a flag that is invalid will have a mine x'd out. All tiles that have a mine, but have a proper flag, will remain as is and will not be exposed

Make sure there is JavaDoc that compiles properly

When the game is loaded, the board gets generated with mines and properly generated adjacent numerals

The tile should show a number that indicates how many mines touch the square

Show a dialog that displays a list of high scores. This should be saved within the configuration file.

Beginner board has 10 mines at 8 x 8
Intermediate board has 40 mines at 16 x 16
Expert board has 99 mines at 30 x 16

Minesweeper starts when a player clicks on a square with the left mouse button

In the debugger, there needs to be a way to show/hide the buttons on all of the tiles

Include in the article how the game was built, nothing specific to the engine.

When a tile is set with a flag, it cannot be uncovered

When the game runs, it looks for a config.ini file that contains all the settings.

It looks like the default image button does not look the same as the Windows XP version, verify this and if need be make a data adjustment.

When an uncovered square with a number has exactly the correct number of adjacent squares flagged, performing a click with both mouse buttons on it will uncover all unmarked squares; This is called a Chord.

It is a basic technique that allows players to clear squares using flags, and the reason why flagging styles are often more efficient than non-flagging ones.

Using the middle mouse button will also cause a chord.

1. Create a custom game, 30x30 with 1 mine
2. Put a flag on any single tile
3. Play the game and uncover all the tiles except for the flagged one
4. Remove the flag
5. Click the tile
6. Notice that the game doesn't end despite the fact that there are no more tiles left to uncover

When clicking on the custom board difficulty, it should stay checked, and clicking it again should remain checked. Every time it is clicked, the dialog should open.

These are the following conditions:

• 1 < Height < ??
• 1 < Width < ??
• 0 < Mines < (Height x Width)

Right-Clicking on a tile should put a flag on the tile, and decrement the available number of flags remaining

Upon clicking on the tile, start a seconds timer. This is what is shown in the top-right most counter
