Author's Card Game

Inspiration

Created For My AP Computer Science Final

What it does

Plays Author's Card Game

How I built it

Built in Eclipse on the Java Platform.

Challenges I ran into

When I first created the game, there were lots of memory leaks from continued threads that did not stop when I closed an active game.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Writing a multi-threaded application, creating a nice user-friendly GUI, and adding in Human Player capabilities.

What I learned

I learned about multitasking and multi-threaded application programming as well as basic GUI.

What's next for AuthorsCardGame

Recent additions include the ability to preview the cards you select as a human player (in the human player branch on GitHub). A more advanced AI could improve the game play: adding the ability for the AI to remember and to take into account previous card requests that have failed to deliver from specific players would improve its competence.
