With some special code, you can make your text in a console window write out like a video game.

This effect is called the typewriter effect.

The code here essentially defines a new “c” variable that does “for every letter in this Console.Write, delay the program by a set number of milliseconds.

Sub Type(text As String) 
    For Each c As Char In text
        Console.Write(c)
        Threading.Thread.Sleep(5) 'milliseconds
    Next
    Console.WriteLine()
End Sub

In your Sub Main(), when you call “Type(“your text here”), it will write out like it does in the video.
