Game Introduction

How To Play

Gomoku game with a very simple AI player to play against. Currently there is no advanced AI or search through the game tree, just a simple heuristic on neighboring tiles. The heuristic counts the number of runs of lengths 1 to 4 (separately for 0, 1 or 2 open ends) for each candidate and each player, and then makes a weighted count of those (the player on move is treated separately though because it gets the first move). Search is somewhat of a pain to implement in scratch with all the constraints, but maybe one day.
