The Game
What We Chose
The game that we have chosen to create within our website is the traditional game of chess.
Why We Chose It
We chose chess think because we think that it's a fun game to play, it will also require a fair amount of skill to create with JavaScript, especially if we get into making a computer player with its own AI.
Another reason for deciding to do it was that it's something different from the usual JavaScript-based game, it's definitely not your normal text-adventure or math number guessing game.
Features
We plan to include a number of features within our game, these include the following:
- A 2 player chess game.
- List of game rules.
- List of game strategies.
- List of external chess links.
- A theme system for choosing and displaying different pieces and game boards.
- Possibly computer AI as an opponent.
- Real-time scoring system.
- A turn timer.
Our Goals
We also have a set of personal goals that we wish to achieve when creating our game, these include the following:
- A website that is fully complaint to W3C standards using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
- Create a website that is visually appealing to the user.
- Create an easily manageable, portable and efficient code base.
