[Final] UGV Marble Game

[Gohtar]

Game Name:
UGV Marble Game

Description:
This is a marble game I discovered one day on vacation. I never heard the name of the game. I was told it was an old native american game.

The purpose of the game is to get your marbles in to a certain pattern while stopping your opponent.

It is a 2 player, turn based game.

Game Modes:
Single Player again Computer
Multiplayer on same zune
Mutliplayer on wifi

Instructions:
There are 2 sets of marbles, black and white. One player controls one color.

The purpose of the game is to get your marbles in to one of the many winning patterns.

The winning patterns are:
Diagonal Line (like how you/your opponent start)
Straight Line anywhere on the board
A block of four marbles in any corner
There are options for more patterns to be enabled in game and are described in the options menu.

If you trap your opponent in a corner with 3 of your marbles you lose.

Marbles move as far as they can in any direction in a straight or diagonal line. Don't worry if that does not make sense the game will mark the spaces you can move to when you select the marble you want to move.

The AI is pretty difficult. Not sure if I am going to fix that.

Yes you can actually beat your opponent on your 2nd move, that is not a bug.

I moved both this game and the other to the "Restricted" subforum, because it's not open source.

Closed source is definitely not the way to go. Follow the instructions in Licensing requirements for developers: a primer to find out how to release your game properly.

[Gohtar]

The license is now included in the downloadable zip file.

Thanks!

The same thing applies here as it does to your other game.

I'd recommend doing what Truck did, and releasing both. That way, most people can still use the .ccgame

It has kept me busy for...
Oh, wow. I just checked. one hour.
I want to know if the computer player is beatable.
I haven't won yet!

[Gohtar]

Honestly I can't remember I have beat the computer yet either. It is possible, you have to set "traps", basically make it impossible for the computer to block your win.

Good game. It would be interesting to know the name of it. So far I've got about a .500 record against the computer, so I'd say it's beatable. I don't get the purpose of the numbers at the bottom showing how many moves have been made though.
