Battleships

Overview

As part of my Computer Science A-Level, I completed an extended programming project. This involved me having to conduct research about already existing products and then formulate my own designs.

I decided to create a version of Battleships, which could be played on desktop PCs. By using a variety of different data structures, file handling and an Insertion Sort algorithm - I was able to create a version of Battleships.

The program allows:

• Players are able to play against the computer (CPU) or against another player (via local co-op)
• Players can compete to try to earn the highest score to earn their place on the leaderboard
• Players can save and load their games to continue unfinished games later

Features

• Single-player vs CPU with AI logic
• Local multiplayer
• Scoring system with a functional leaderboard that displays the top ten highest scores
• Save and load functionality for long-term play
• A clear and simple user interface (UI)
