Connect Four with Rust and Web Assembly

Demo

A screenshot of the game:

Intro

I implemented this as an exercise to learn Rust and WebAssembly's world. The game AI is built with the Montecarlo method and the difficulty is determined by the number of moves for which the Montecarlo method is applied (the harder the difficulty, the slower the game is going to be).

Getting Started

Need the following steps for setting up the environment:

• curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh -s -- --channel=nightly
• cargo install cargo-web
• rustup install nightly
• rustup target add wasm32-unknown-emscripten
• rustup default nightly

And then run:

cargo-web start
