Alan and I have decided to create single- or multi-player checkers using Adobe Flash. Flash ActionScript is a language that we are both minimally familiar with at the start of this project, but we recognize the usefulness of the language--particularly when on the job hunt!--and think it would be fun to learn; additionally, it seems to us that the UI will be easier to handle with Flash than with the other graphics tool we are familiar with, which is the OpenGL library in C++.
Our goal for this project is to having a working game of checkers that can be played with a friend on two different computers, or that can be played against a reasonably challenging AI opponent. Bonus if it looks nice.
