In the Spring of 2014, I created a two-player Chess game, with checkmate detection and a chess clock as a part of a Programming course at Penn. Our objective was to develop and test a bug-free standalone game in Java, complete with a GUI and game logic components.
I developed a bug-free, fast and well-designed product with a clean user interface and received the highest possible score in the assignment. The source code is in this repository.
This game is built using core Java, Java Swing GUI libraries and the jUnit test suite. It uses custom drawing for game components and self-programmed logic for checkmate detection. The code is modular, standalone and object oriented, which was a grading criteria for the assignment.
Compile the project into an executable .jar file by running the following ANT build script on the command line. Make sure jar-in-jar-loader.zip in this repository is in the folder.
ant -f build.xml
Then, run the executable .jar file, named chess-java.jar to play.
