Issue
I am working on a tic tac toe game using java netbeans in a gui and need help adding How many wins 'x' and 'o' got. The following code is the only file i am using for this project so far. The rest of the code itself has no issues and the game works as expected, just need to add a score system. Any ideas how i can implement the score system?
package game;

Solution
You can do this via a JLabel and a method to support the winner logic.
int xWinCount = 0;
int oWinCount = 0;
private void incrementWinner( String winner )
{
if( "X".equals( winner ) )
{
xWinCount += 1;
}
else
{
oWinCount += 1;
}
}
And then call this in your winEffect method as below.
incrementWinner( b1.getText() );
jLabelWinner.setText( "X wins : " + xWinCount + " | O wins : " + oWinCount );
jLabelWinner is defined in the initComponent method as below
jLabelWinner = new javax.swing.JLabel();
jLabelWinner.setFont( new java.awt.Font( "Tahoma", 1, 18 ) );
jLabelWinner.setText( "Win Status" );
And then, add this to the layout.
layout.setHorizontalGroup(
layout.createParallelGroup( javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING )
.addGroup( layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addContainerGap()
.addGroup( layout.createParallelGroup( javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING )
.addComponent( jPanel1, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, Short.MAX_VALUE )
.addGroup( layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addComponent( jPanel2, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE )
.addGap( 0, 0, Short.MAX_VALUE ) ) )
.addContainerGap() )
.addGroup( layout.createParallelGroup( javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.TRAILING )
.addComponent( jButtonReplay, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, 265, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE )
.addComponent( jButtonEnd, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, 265, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE ) )
.addComponent( jLabelWinner, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, 265, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE )
);
layout.setVerticalGroup(
layout.createParallelGroup( javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING )
.addGroup( layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addContainerGap()
.addComponent( jPanel1, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE )
.addPreferredGap( javax.swing.LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement.RELATED )
.addComponent( jPanel2, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE )
.addGap( 18, 18, 18 )
.addComponent( jButtonReplay, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, Short.MAX_VALUE )

Styling and reseting is up to you. This is one way to do what you want
