Its a board game called Mancala.

Well I've worked on this since last Thursday night and nearly straight through the week end to today. Slept 3 hours in the last 43 hours. last feature I want to add is the ability to change the wallpaper in the background and maybe the buttons too. And work out the MouseListener bugs.

Yeah we saw that part but like what's it do? How does one play? Where can one get the Win32 binary?

Yeah, but what's so special about it that it took you that long to do?

EDIT: Not trying to belittle it, just curious. Flaunt what ya did man!

You play by clicking a pit, (the numbers on dots represent the the number of coins in that pit).
So you click a pit, and then that makes it empty and then one coin is dropped in the each pit moving towards the users end score pit(the ones on the end) till the number of coins from the selected pit run out. You win just by getting the most in the end pit.

It took so long just because its the first big GUI thing I've had to do.
Some it took time adding in the features and making the GUI like it does.

Features:
save game
load game
can set names for player 1 and 2
Single player and 2 player mode
The different AI difficulties
undo last move options
keeps track of top 25 scores(Name, Score and Date)
ability to change the icons on the buttons(pits)
ability to change background image
ability to freely move buttons around in the window.


I'm going to remove the last feature and make it so you can have a mascot and have him be freely movable. Thats the plan at least.

So it just took awhile to get that organized and layedout. And a lot of the GUI things like setting a label to be a image and then pass it into a Panel to set the background. Was a work around that took some time. As with learning MouseListener. All things I've never done, so I found how to do them and set up a test GUI till I got it working well and then implemented it into this project.

Nice! Yeah, when will a Win32 binary be available? I always liked that game.... btw, what language did you program it in?
