Hey everyone,
======
Before I start, when you first download the program, please read the readme and the legal information documents, they're very important.

What is this?
======
So, you may have stumbled across this post and wondered what on Earth is this? This program is an interactive version of the UK version of the Millionaire Host Screen. The game still plays as normal (you can use lifelines, you OBVIOUSLY have to answer the questions) but it gives you the view of the host at the same time! The program itself, in it's most basic form, is a massive upgrade from my earlier console project in C++. This program, including its loader, was written entirely in C++/CLI (Trust me, choose C# if you're doing .NET). The program has all the graphics you would expect (the money tree, lifelines, win cards) and even has the music as well!
======
How long did this take?
======
This program took a few months since I didn't have a structure to build on (text based to interactive, that was a big leap) and was a learning experience the whole way through. The very first program based on Millionaire was a text based version in Python written back in January (literally the buggiest piece of crap ever) but that then evolved into a less buggy more powerful version in C++ until finally it transformed into this.
======
Have you got any pictures?
======
Sure!
======
How do I download this?
======
Well, as I've said, this program took a lot of work, hence I want to protect it. In order for you to download it, you'll have to send me a PM, so I can keep track of who has downloaded the program. Once you PM me, I'll send you the link and you'll be free to play. But please, READ THE README AND LEGAL INFORMATION DOCUMENTS. Thanks
======
Requirements
======
* .NET Framework 3.5 or later
* Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable or later
======
Important Notes
======
Please remember that this program is still in Open Beta so please send me any and all bug reports. You can do this by sending me a PM (again, easier to keep track of) describing what happens and when it happens as well as any other important information related to said bug.
If you have any requests of features you would like added, please tell me either in this post or via a PM. Even though the program is now in beta, I do intend to keep developing upon it and to improve it. If there is an update to the program, you will all be notified by PM.
======
Thanks!
======
Thank you all for taking the time to read this, rather long, post. I hope I have some of you intrigued and I also hope to see some of you requesting a download! Once again, thanks for reading!
UPDATE 12/01/15 - Unfortunately, support and development of the game in Creativity will soon be discontinued. A new release will be available shortly with some final bug fixes but afterwards, the game will only be available to Fan Games Pass Holders. I hope you all understand.
