Tech 10 Birthday Game Project: (Baris)

1. The soldiers (pawns) can move backward
2. artillery (knight) can shoot in any of the squares within the L-shape and when it shoots the artilery moves to that spot
3. The board is going to be 12 by 8 instead of 8 by 8

UPDATE:

I have completed a 12x8 square board for my Command and Conquer game. This is a big step towards making my final product because by having my board, I have my base for my whole project. I am able to now design the board however I want so that its creativity and aesthetics are going to be at the highest. I have also been able to color it at an extent, the black squares are finally done, so that it looks a bit like chess itself.

Final Evalutation

 The people who played my game were nick, lenny, yuval and mike. After they played my game, I asked them what i need to improve on, what I did well and if i was easy to understand. The responses were all similar. They all said that the game itself was really good but I needed to make it more interesting and they said it can be done by having a more appealing board and pieces. They also said it was easy to understand but it would take some time to get good at playing it just like other games. Chess did take a while to learn so I say that this will too.

I need to fix the board and pieces themselves so I plan on making the board on cardboard and decorating it with toys and objects so that it looks like a battlefeild and so that it looks more professional. Its looks are significant because a good looking game would be something everyone would want to see. It would draw more attention thus making more people want to play.

Time was one of the things that held me from doing my best in this project. During the creation stage I needed time to make the pieces but because i didnt have any spare time, I had to find sutibale images online and use them instead. Also, during the creation stage I developed many skills that go along with physically making things like precision when drawing the lines for the board and i learned how to balance a game. This means that it isnt too hard or too easy to play. It also means that there arent any certain pieces or abilities that can make one person have an advantage of winning.

RULES!

* The setup of the game is exactly like the chess game

1. tank moves like a rook
2. artileery fires in the L shape and moves to the spot it fires to
3. appache helicopter moves like the king but can move to a maximum as 3 spaces instead of one
4. f-16 moves like a queen
5. commander moves like a king
6. soldiers move like a pawn

*The objective is to destroy all the enemy pieces

* If a soldier reaches the last row of squares on the enemy side, you have the ability to bring a piece back
