![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Connect4 is a four-in-a-row videogame. Its novelty is the possibility to exploit the power of Fairy Stockfish for the moves computed by the program. Fairy Stockfish is a multi purpose engine derived from the famous Stockfish, engine written for chess. Features: - Fairy Stockfish support - Take back move - Suggest move Connect4 doesn't contain any playing algorithm, it's only an interface. Therefore, porting an appropriate Connect4-compatible engine is very important. It is recommended the engine Fairy-Stockfish, who is a chess variant engine derived from Stockfish (another engine who plays classical chess) designed for the support of fairy chess variants and easy extensibility with more games. It can play various regional, historical, and modern chess variants such as: Xiangqi, Janggi, Shogi, Makruk and many more, including games with user-defined rules. Fairy-Stockfish is recommended because allows to play with numerous games, of which Connect4 is only one. Porting it allows user to play not only Connect4 but with other chess games also, the following interfaces are already been implemented: Xiangqi (chinese chess): https://aminet.net/package/game/board/Xiangqi_OS4 Janggi (korean chess): https://aminet.net/package/game/board/Janggi_OS4 Other interfaces to play with other chess variants are planned. By porting Fairy Stockfish for this platform, became possible to play against computer not only in Connect 4, but in Xiangqi and Janggi also. The source code of Fairy Stockfish on GitHub: https://github.com/fairy-stockfish/Fairy-Stockfish Author of Connect4 can be contacted by developers of such engine, so that is possible to test it and solve every problem who arise interfacing it with Connect4 and other interfaces. Connect4 is released as freeware and can be distributed in every non-commercial form. |
