Connect4

Made In : Lua and love2D

Structure : 

The whole game is divided into three main parts 

• Initialize : Load the sprites and initialize the game variables,flags. 
• Update : Called every frame , contains the game logic.
• Draw : Renders  the changes on the screen , called every frame. 

Game Logic :

Internally , the state of the Connect4 board is stored as an matrix (2D array) using three elements '0','1'and '2'

'0' : Empty Slot
'1' : Player 1 dice
'2' : Player 2 dice

Examples :


All the winning conditions are checked using the matrix and the Renderer simply draws the equivalent of the internal matrix , hence any change in the matrix is immediately reflected on the screen. 

All the networking is implemented using direct UDP connections on local network.
