Corridor Game

Ever wished you could play Quoridor online with friends? Well, now you can! This is an online implementation of the game using C++ and cpp-httplib.

Here's a quick tutorial:

Each player is initially spawned in one of the corners of a 11*11 board. They have 2 options in their turn:

• Move their bead to an empty cell adjacent to their current cell.
• Choose 3 consecutive cell to place a block either horizontally or vertically. A cell is deemed 'empty' if:
• No player (including the current player) has placed a block that covers that cell in a previous turn.
• No other player is currently in that cell. The goal of the game is to get to the middle cell of the board. The first player who gets there wins the game.

Installation

Cloning the project

git clone https://github.com/TheRNB/CorridorGame.git

Compiling the project

make all

Execution

Running the server

to run the server, open a terminal and type in:

./server

you can then choose the number of players and connect to the server via the clients.

Running the clients

to run the clients, open a terminal and type in:

./client

the clients will automatically connect to the server. The game will start when all the players connect to the server.

Developing

Tests

All the parts of the project are made with tests in mind. Tests were created using Catch2 and you can run them by typing the following command in terminal:

make test

The tests include all the parts and you can add extra tests for the parts you develop later.

Server Responses

The clients communicate with the server using JSON, if you have problems with the server you can check the responses through this address:

127.0.0.1:8000

openssl/err.h

If you're experiencing problems with opensll/err.h library, you can install it via the following command:

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
