Lines of action is a two-player strategy board game.
It's developed in C/C++ languages, using GTK2 libraries and targeting Linux
as Windows platforms.
The goal is to group all of one's checkers. At the beginning of a game each
player has his checkers aligned on two opposite sides of the chessboard.
Checkers can move in each direction, including diagonals. The number of
squares of a move depends on the number of all the checkers on that line.
It is possible to jump over a friendly checker, but not over the opponent's
ones. Furthermore, it's possible to capture checkers when reaching the
square of an opponent.
The major feature is the IA algorithms used by the computer player :
- Minimax
- Negamax
- Alpha-beta
- Alpha-beta with memory
- MTD
