Game of The Generals

Is it possible to create an educational war boardgame like Game of The Generals in LOVE?

Here are some images of the board game:

We would certainly be happy to help you when you have problems, but you really ought to look up the tutorials, read the wiki, and search the forums first.

This reminds me of a board game called "Stratego".

Thanks!

This game is actually a mix of Chess and Stratego.


Maybe I'll just start by creating Dots and Boxes, as this game seems to hard for my knowledge of lua and LOVE. I'll start with something simple.

For the actual board it self, check out https://love2d.org/wiki/Tutorial:Gridlocked_Player. You could use the zeros in the example as the actual board and the ones as a wall around the game. Then, instead of drawing a square draw your own textures.

Code: Select all

if map[y][x] == 1 then
		love.graphics.draw(brick, x * 32 - 32, y * 32 - 32)
	end

If there are pieces that move further than others set a movement for each type of piece.
Good Luck
