Hello! I have finished building the basic prototype for Rokkaku. It's pretty rough and there's definitely a large amount of room for future improvements, but it's playable.
The only functionality currently implemented is local two-player (i.e. on the same device) on a 6-vertex board. The codebase does support games on more than 6 vertices, but these modes will become available in later updates when I add some UI.
Rokkaku is a two-player game. Player 1 (who moves first) is red and Player 2 is blue. A move consists of drawing a line between two distinct circles. Lines can only be drawn between two circles if there isn't already a line connecting those two circles (in either colour).
Each player's goal is to avoid constructing a triangle in their colour (or to force the other player to construct one). When one player constructs a triangle, it will be drawn on the screen and that player loses the game.
Stay tuned.
