    Tic-Tac-Toe

    This is my first game, so I'm happy about it. I know it isn't much, but you have to start off somewhere. There is human vs human play and human vs AI play. Please post any comments you have regarding the game.


    BtW, this game may be known to you as Noughts and Crosses.

    Well, after saying that the AI is unbeatable (at least I thought it was) many people proved me wrong. So I felt the need to improve the AI, however it is still beatable, and other parts of the game. The new version is v1.1e, and the old version of v1.0e became no longer available after 43 downloads.

    version history
    -------------------

    v1.1e
    -------

    -ability to play more than one game while not having to close window

    -when playing more than one game the score is kept track of

    -a win equals 2 points, a draw equals 1 point, and a loss equals 0 points

    v1.0e
    -------

    -created the basis for the game

    -human vs human play and AI vs human play

    nice!

    Very nice! It really is the best console tic-tac-toe game I have seen. And there are a lot of them out there. It runs smoothly, and the interface is easy. Good job!

    Thanks for all of you're positive comments. The only problem with the game is that the AI is unbeatable. I actually had intentions of making the AI beatable, but I forgot to do that. Since this game isn't of much importance I'm not going to change it. Plus I will always be able to say that I've made an unbeatable AI.

    To the unregistered user, I don't think you can attach any files while being unregistered. Once you are registered, though, all you have to do is attach the file in one of your posts...go to browse and locate the file.

    <<I wrote that in my original post, as well>>

    You can download the new version (that's if you want to ) in my original post.

    Instead of making the user input a row and column.. why not make it a single number? I have an old tictactoe I made here, this is how I did it:

    Code:
    switch (move)
    {
    	case 1: { x = 0; y = 0; break; }
    	case 2: { x = 0; y = 1; break; }
    	case 3: { x = 0; y = 2; break; }
    	case 4: { x = 1; y = 0; break; }
    	case 5: { x = 1; y = 1; break; }
    	case 6: { x = 1; y = 2; break; }
    	case 7: { x = 2; y = 0; break; }
    	case 8: { x = 2; y = 1; break; }
    	case 9: { x = 2; y = 2; break; }
    	{
    		cout << "\n\tInvalid input, please restate->";
    		getInput(playerup);
    	}
    
    }
