Inspiration. We wanted to make a fun way to study.
What it does. It takes in user input to create the matching pairs for a memory card game. You click on cards to flip them over, trying to find two cards that match.
How we built it. We built it using sing in Java.
Challenges we ran into. We had to figure out a way to clear all old JPanels off the JFrame to make it possible to put new ones on.
Accomplishments that we're proud of. Our game works without glitches, and is fun to play!
What we learned. Even things that seem simple at first can turn out to be difficult to put into coded format.
What's next for Memory Flashcard Matching Game. Instead of ending when you complete all the matching pairs, the game will ask the user if he or she wants to replay with the same data, enter a new set of data, or exit the game.
