This code was originally written in C++ .NET and was the first .NET program I had worked on. As a result, some things aren't as well written as they could be, and don't take advantage of some of the clever .NET language features I have subsequently learnt about (or were only available in C#). There aren't many source code comments either, as it was never originally planned to be open-sourced. The C++ code was then converted to C#, once the bulk of the code had been written. - @sstteevvee
