Inspiration
We wanted to make something that targeted coders/programmers as a demographic and thought a game would be perfect. An algorithm for quickly winning battleship can be fun and challenging.
What it does
The user can choose which player they want to play and then they can watch them as they play. This is not the full intent of the project but we have a proof of concept here that is implemented well.
How we built it
We used Java, Swing, and JPanel to build it
Challenges we ran into
We wanted to have the user submit their own code but we weren't quite sure how to compile it and make it run
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we saught the project to the end with all the challenges and bugs.
What we learned
We learned that Java wasn't the best way to implement it and JavaScript would have been a better option, but also that not every feature makes it into the first prototype.
What's next for Battleship AI Platform
Redeveloping it in JavaScript and implementing it on a website
