This is a simplified version of the 2048 game. My version will not spawn a 4 tile but will always spawn a 2 tile for every move. This is to simplify game mechanics as well as reduce complexity required for the AI. The AI itself is built with Expectiminimax algorithm with various performance improvements.
You can either run this project inside Intellij IDEA or in terminal on Linux/Mac. Software requirements are as follow:
- JDK 8 and Make (For Linux/Mac)
- Intellij IDEA (If you are using IDEA to compile/run the game)
Using Intellij IDEA: I have included necessary files, just pull the repo and open with IDEA. To compile and play the game, run the Gui2048 class in the following path:
src/Game2048/GUI/
Using terminal in Linux or Mac: run the following command to compile and run the game
