Title: NspireGOBAN
Post by: TheNlightenedOne on June 11, 2012, 09:34:02 pm

Even though I don't expect to place in the contest, I think I'll enter for the sake of programming.
Anyway, my project is NspireGOBAN, a go game for the Nspire. It will use C and possibly some ASM. (Requires Ndless, obviously  :P)
It will probably be for both grayscale and CX, although plans are subject to change. I pretty much just started it tonight, since finals are over tomorrow.

woah, a go game? Do you mean the 5 line-thing or actual full-fledged game of Go?

Well at least there aren't too many competitors yet.  :)

Good luck with a full-fledged version. Sounds pretty difficult...

Edit: Post Count is 2^8 :D

Yes, a full 19x19 (or possibly 13x13) version of go, complete with AI. And while yes, that will be difficult, I need something to do over the sumer... :)

yeah... they still haven't really found a good go AI program yet even with super computers... But then again you don't really need an amazing AI for this tho. Also I don't know how many judges actually know how to play a game of go lol

Good luck TheNlightenedOne. Are you planning to use nSDL?

I actually never thought to use nSDL... but I'll definitely consider it for the interfaces. Most of the game engine, AI, etc. will be in C or ASM though.
More work be done on this when I get home tonight.

it's a lot of work you'll put in it ö if you plan to implement all those functions, good luck :)

Update: I'm currently working on possible interface mockups... no pictures yet. I'll try to get some soon. My computer can't handle Chrome and GIMP at the same time. I'm now working on the AI.

Another update: I'm making good progress. Since I have over 2 weeks left, I'll probably have at least most of my planned features implemented. Tomorrow I'll be working on the AI.

EDIT: I got sick that day, so I didn't do much, but I'm still making good progress.

I have decided that because of the enormity of this project, I cannot enter it in the contest. However, it will still be developed.
