Good point! My wording was bad. I meant in order to cover all 25 squares you would need to use 3 knights on the 7 squares 7+7+7 is 21 and you would need a knight on the 5 square to reach the 25 quota

Yeah I thought about that but I had made it already and didn’t feel like using c++

@@JoeCoup1 Completely reasonable

Thank you :)

Thank you :) I used the same music and programmed it the way he does so I’m not surprised

Sure thing github.com/swoyer2/knightDomination

I get you! That is a different problem which I also find interesting. However I don't think I will ever make a video on it because it is too similar to this one. Here is a forum post with the solution though :) chess.stackexchange.com/questions/23258/what-is-the-least-number-of-knights-needed-to-cover-the-entire-board

@@JoeCoup1 More than enough. Thank you!!!

:)

:)

No I didn’t, it took a long time for 1 game (15 minutes) and was annoying to setup the board positions

I was thinking this as well, just didn’t implement it

Hell yeah

Idk! The first I’d ever seen it was on game pigeon

:)

I was wondering why I kept getting views from the same IP

Thanks man

If I remember correctly it’s because it detected a win 12 moves ahead

@@JoeCoup1 fair enough; IMO for a proper AI it should still take the game to a guaranteed win (i.e. no combination of moves prevent a win; this is automatically the case when you control 1 square more than 50% of the board; so branches can end there rather than at the conclusion of the game), but this explanation makes sense (and the correct follow up, yellow, is trivially obvious)

Lmao, that’s funny

AI is just algorithms sekgetto

No you

Right now it feels like there are large chunks of highly edited and large chunks of completely unedited parts of the video. The ending was extremely abrupt and felt like you rushed to finishing the video. With just some practice on creating a winning formula your content is bound to succeed. Absolutely loved the video but I think there is a ton of Enhancement that can still be made. Wishing you the best man

Thanks man! I agree, I just need more practice but I’m getting better :)

Thanks!

nice

nice

Gonna open source it soon :) busy with work and a game jam rn

I have not! Maybe in a future video

Thank you :)

:(

Do 8 ball

i think knockout would be super interesting, it is the main game i think of as a "gamepigeon original" although it would definitely be more complicated to implement since there are wayyy more than 4 possible moves

that is my second favorite game on there (Not including chess)

do word hunt. seems pretty easy to code. you'll probably have to use a dictionary api tho

Chess, Ataxx, Go

Did not know about it at the time!

why would it? this game seems rather simple for mcts

@@user-ws7kp1yh9l A. no heuristic B. Filler has many moves but low number of possible actions

thought about that, I kind of agree

Are you saying just do the color with the most squares each turn? If that was the case then it’s pretty easy to beat, you can just go section off a big portion of the board and you will win

I will soon! Just gotta clean it up. :)

thank you! I gotta get working on cleaning it up lol

nvm, you did. i guess it is python slowness than

Maybe, I thought that. I tried doing Cython but I couldn’t get it to compile and decided it wasn’t worth it

@@JoeCoup1 i think i will try remaking this project in go or zig some time. just to see how fast can it be

Lmk if you do! :)

@@JoeCoup1 thank you for inspiration :3

thanks! I liked using blockbench but don't know how much more I will use it tbh. 3d games aren't really my thing for game dev

@@JoeCoup1 I get it, I have made a lot of 2d games too, didn't publish any but we don't talk about that lol, idk its easier and fun. But recently I found 3d to be pretty good and a fun challenge, I used gamemaker and now am using godot

I have an idea for a 3D game just don’t know when I will get around to it. How are you liking godot? I find it’s really easy to do things

@@JoeCoup1 Its pretty good, haven't finished any games on it though, it makes everything pretty easy, I did some networking without any line of code its great, I do like hard coding some aspects tho, and thats a big turn off for me in 3d in general

I did! I started editing/explaining alpha beta pruning in the video and it just was too much for what I wanted the video to be. I didn’t want to lose people from seeing the end result by explaining a topic that could be a bit confusing

Hmm I don’t know about those! Gonna look into it

Thank you :)

What is the one player version called?

Hmm, I figured that might happen. Do you use android? Game pigeon is an IOS exclusive, but it’s very popular among IOS users

@@JoeCoup1 I use Android, and iMessage is also not as popular where I live (and frankly I think it's not very popular outside of the States at all).

yeah pretty sure that is true, thanks for watching the video regardless!

​@@JoeCoup1why not androd

wdym? Why don't I have android? My phone was a gift that's why. As to why game pigeon is not on android, it probably has to do with how imessage is different than a standard text

I agree :)

But sometimes the color that is less common will lead to a better board later on, like sometimes choosing a “worse” move will make your opponents move bad therefore making it a good move

This is like saying in chess you can just take the highest value piece you can with no consideration for anything else

@@Philyshark7 I would argue this is not really the same, because chess is a very complex game, where very importantly the opponents interact a lot with each other.

@@umikaliprivate In filler the opponents also interact for example choosing a color blocks the opponent from choosing the color; and where you expand also changes where you should expand. Its the difference in being shortsided with attacks vs looking ahead

Yup! Mini max is fun to see in games. I want to use it more/use other game solver algorithms
