#GameCollectionApp The original project was just a c# console application that took in data from a text file, and made a simple trivia game. I am changing this to a collection of gui games. The user will be able to choose from different trivia formats or choose other classic games to play. Using .Net Framework 4.5. Platform is limited to Windows.

##Mission Statement A place to make a collection of games. I enjoy making little games like this. Its a fun hobby and exercises my programming skills. I am also learning how to use github for OSS projects. If you also like creating games and want to see where your programming skills are, then feel free to contribute.

#####Run in MonoDevelop Developers can choose to do this in MonoDevelop but it will need to be started from scratch and be a separate project because MonoDevelop only supports winforms for .Net 2.0. You can install MonoDevelop from here . It is supported on Linux, Mac OSX, and Windows. Depending on what OS you are using, you will follow different instruction to download and install.

Mono Documentation

For UI elements, you will want to use WinForms
