Project: othello
Type: JavaScript Application
Site: www.alancece.com/othello
Challenge: To create an advanced artificial intelligence (AI) from scratch.
Solution: Othello has always been a favorite of mine. So what could be better than writing my own version in JavaScript. The main challenge to this project was developing a challenging Artificial Intelligence (AI) since there are 64 tiles on the board. I also decided to throw in some bells and whistles by adding "ghost" pieces that show all possible moves on rollover. I just couldn't stop there so I added in a player vs player version that allows to people sitting at the same computer to play each other.
