Checkers Game
Embedded Files
This is a Checkers game I made using Python. It’s a board game where a human user play as the red pieces, and the computer or AI plays as the white pieces. The game has an AI that tries to make smart moves, so it feels like you’re playing with a real opponent!
Key Features:
•AI Algorithm:
I used something called the Minimax algorithm to make the AI decide its moves. It tries to pick the best move by looking at all the options. To make it faster, I added Alpha-Beta Pruning, which skips unnecessary moves.
•Graphics:
I used Tkinter, a Python library, to create the board and pieces. The board updates whenever you or the computer makes a move. You can click on your pieces to see where they can go.
Game Rules
Pieces move diagonally on black squares.
You can capture the opponent’s pieces by jumping over them.
When a piece reaches the opposite end of the board, it becomes a “king” and can move backward too.
4. Normal pieces can capture kings. Then, that normal pieces will become a King pieces.
How To Play
Start the game, and you’ll see the board. Then, click on your red pieces to highlight possible moves and select the destination. As shown in the following figure, when you click on the red pieces, the available places will be highlighted. After pick a move, the AI will play after you. Then keep capturing pieces until you win or lose!
