    Hello,

    I have an university project due next week and would like to make a virtual game. I was thinking of making a chess game for two people, however, the players need to answer a question correctly before being able to make a move. I want to make a chess game with the features below. Please tell me how I can accomplish this. Thank you.

    • Virtual Chess Game
    • 50+ Question Database
    • Prevent Player Move When Question Answered Wrong
    • Automatic Loss if More Than So Many Questions Answered Wrong
    • When Game Loss, Make The Opponent's Queen Automatically Knock The King Off The Board

    Do you have any programming or design knowledge?
    This seems like a very intense project for the given deadline.

    A chess game is going to be difficult to program from scratch esp in your timescales. The only realistic option is if there is an opensource chess program you can use and customise for the question element but that depends on the rules of your assignment and if it must be from scratch or can be an advancement on an existing thing.

    If you do not have knowledge how are you planing to make it. My advise is for you to find an ebook or ask your teachers.

    I am going to use a basic programming language such as c#, visual basic, or pascal. I plan to find opensource code for a chess program and integrate the questions feature into the game. I will use online tutorials and ebooks as my source of knowledge and guide to successfully creating the game. I will also look to digitalpoint for help, if needed.
