Hi, in this tutorial we will be remaking the rock paper scissors game in .NET and C# programming in Visual Studio. This game will be completed within 100 lines of code. We will explore how to make a simple rock paper scissors game with texts, buttons and images. In this game you will make the game so the player can play it against a simple CPU which will choose a random selection from rock paper or scissors option in the game.

1. Make a rock paper scissors game in 100 lines of code with .Net and C# programming
2. Use buttons and events to control the game
3. Create a simple CPU choice system
4. Use if statement and switch statements in the code
5. Import images and use them to show the choices for the player and the CPU
