Plan/design for app game

I am making 3 system thing for school: website, database and app(game). I already have website which was main project piece set up and database is fully working with website too. Now I have to make secondary system app game. It is going to be sliding puzzle game those where image is cut into segments and you have to slide pieces back together. So before I begin that I want to have some plan or what to use and how to use it. I was thinking Window Forms with librabry or extension to cut images into segments. I want Login Window which leads to menu window with option to select different profile in new window and also window for actual game and window/pop up for results. This app shouldn't be anything crazy kinda minimal. I am looking for any suggestions or ideas

❔ Making game aplication

I have project for college where I would have application, website and database all connected into one project. I came up with idea to make a game as application, website for registering, seeing game info and scores and database to just connect all data. It has to be somewhat sizeable project because it will span trough whole term and will work for few subjects. I am just not sure on what game to pick. I think it has to be singleplayer game so maybe something like maze solving game where you solve maze with keyboard. Maybe someone has other ideas or suggestions for this?

❔ Adding Polymorphism to a program

I have project for school and I must use Polymorphism but I have already written everything and it works and to add Polymorphism where few classes use 1 base class would require to change a lot. What if I use 1 new "base" class which would get inhereted by my already made class and I would add Polymorphism functionality to it? Would this still count as having Polymorphism?

❔ List of messages after a certain message in Discord channel

I am writting a trivia type of game bot for discord and after I post a picture or a question players would type things and I need to get list of written messages so I could determine who answered correctly. Right now I have methods for showing picture or question but I dont know how to actually track written messages. I tried to get last writte message ID after showing a question or picture and then use GetMessagesAfterAsync() by giving it ID but my ID is wrong because it tracks ID of message that was written before starting the program and GetMessagesAfterAsync() return tasks and not list. Maybe someone has better for tracking messages or knows how to do this properly. I am using DSharpPlus
