    BoardGame Tool description

    BoardGame Tool provides a C front-end/Python back-end for running board games.

    BoardGame Tool provides a C front-end/Python back-end for running board games.

    It features an easy and flexible interface to interact with the players and has transparent support for network or AI-controlled games.

    Through a clear XML interface, games elements can be specified. Using an easy-to-learn back-end language like Python for rule implementations makes it very easy to implement, adjust, or enhance rules that come with a game.

    The same back-end language can be used easily for simple or complex AI implementations.

    Here are some key features of "BoardGame Tool":

    · XML specification with DTD validation for game definition
    · Easy-to-learn Python programming for rule implementation
    · Integrated and transparent network play
    · Network chat with selected players
    · Simple interface for programming AI players
    · Extensive support for image formats
    · Runtime scaling of images, allowing easy application of anything as gamepiece

    Games currently implemented:
    - Chess
    - Go

    What's New in This Release:

    · This release includes the data archive with correct licensing information for the Fergus Duniho abstract chess piece set.
