Renju of my youth - Txori

[Txori]

わが青春の連珠 - Waga seishun no Renju

Renju is played with black and white stones on a 15x15 board.
The rules are simple: be the first to get an unbroken row of five stones horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The first player (black) must avoid forbidden moves, while the white player can corner him into making one.

Here, we're playing the gentleman's way: all dangerous moves will blink as a warning, and forbidden moves are simply prevented. The game philosophy is to avoid low blows and to politely announce what's going on.

"Life is short, but there is always time enough for courtesy."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

1.) I love the name
2.) I love the game
3.) Imma play this when I get home

Is it singleplayer or multiplayer or both?

[Txori]

Thanks Kaimega. I named it like that because I used to play it a lot when I was a kid.
Right now, you can only play against a friend. Or against yourself, but that's kind of crazy. I'll make the AI for another release.
By the way, the OUYA dev team told me about a bug when using two OUYA gamepads. But I don't have two OUYA controllers to test it. I've only tested it using one OUYA gamepad and a PS3 gamepad. I'll try to fix that for the next release too.

hm, then I will download this and wait for an update to play against AI *has no friends*

OK, I've just repaired the "more than one gamepad" bug. It was a bit tricky... Maybe we'll have to modify HaxeFlixel gamepad handler.
For those who are using HaxeFlixel and are interested by the subject, it's taking place here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm...4/1yrbGFgqgTcJ

Do you guys have any suggestions for the game before I make a new version?

I just have 1 question and one statement.

1.) What the hell is Haxel Flaxel? o_O

2.) I like your site.

3.) Aside from the lack of AI currently, I have no complaints with the game

[Txori]

Thanks. I'm discovering Android (and OUYA) development with that first game in order to win a lot of time for my other games.
HaxeFlixel is a cross plateform engine to make 2D games. It blends Haxe + OpenFl + Flixel and it's quite nice so far.

I have to think a bit of how I'm going to handle the AI. So it's going to take some time :s

Ah, that makes sense now! No problem

[Txori]

The new version is live (0.3.1) with a quick bugfix in order to handle several gamepads correctly

Now I can go back to my two other OUYA projects! See you soon.

Nice to hear there's an update of this game. I played this game a few days ago and I'm currently loving it. Can't wait to seem more of your upcoming projects.
