Gomoku

Classic Gomoku (5 in a row) with bots.

How to play: Each players take turn to place their stone on a 19 x 19 board, Black goes first, who ever make the first 5 in a row wins. Similar to TicTacToe or Caro. Stones once placed cannot be removed. No additional limitation.

If you wish to review the bot's log, execute "dev_run.bat", or open cmd and type "java -jar Gomoku.jar" (only for Windows and you should place "/Gomoku" in a different directory other than "/Downloads"), if not then you can just execute "Gomoku.jar", or run "run.vbs". Thanks for trying out my program!

Compiled in Java 15.

Note: the pre-built .jar app in gomoku_app is NOT the latest version (the codebase in gomoku/)
