How can you hope for making a game if your coding is so pure (so many immediate constants hard-coded, for example)? What's the problems?

I know it's still early, but I don't see what this has to do with inheritance..

I don't see anything here which has to do with inheritance, and I am not quite sure what you problem is: there is nothing about colour in your code, except a few disconnected bits an pieces.

However, you have complicated your code quite a bit unnecessarily. Instead of a single loop to create a row and column matrix, it is a lot clearer if you use a pair of nested loops:

Point buttonLocn = new Point(0, 56);
Size buttonSize = new Size(30, 30);
int locX = buttonLocn.X, locY = buttonLocn.Y;
int i = 1;
for (int xButton = 0; xButton < numberOfColumns; xButton++)
    {
    locY = buttonLocn.Y;
    for (int yButton = 0; yButton < numberOfRows; yButton++)
        {
        Button x = new Button();
        x.Name = "x" + i.ToString();
        i++;
        x.Size = new Size(buttonSize.Width, buttonSize.Height);
        x.Location = new Point(locX, locY);
        x.Click += new EventHandler(x_Click);
        x.Location = new Point(locX, locY);
        locY += buttonSize.Height;
        pictureBox1.Controls.Add(x);
        }
    locX += buttonSize.Width;
    }

Note that I have replaced your "magic numbers" with more readable versions.

I'm not sure what you need, but this is simple code to change the colour when you click a button:

private void x_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    Button b = sender as Button;
    if (b != null)
        {
        b.BackColor = GetTurnColor();
        }
    }
int turn = 0;
private Color GetTurnColor()
    {
    // Since I don't know what your game is supposed to do,
    // I'll just dummy something in...
    turn++;
    if ((turn & 1) == 0)
        {
        return Color.Red;
        }
    return Color.Blue;
    }

Each time you click, the button colour will be set red or blue, alternating.
