Welcome to the MindSwap Academy Casino! This project aims to create an interactive and enjoyable online casino experience. Players can engage in various mini-games such as poker, blackjack, and slots. The games will start when a waitingRoom has at least three clients, who will then be presented with three mini-games to select from.
The MindSwap Academy Casino is built using Java programming language and incorporates concepts of network programming, concurrent programming, and documentation using JavaDocs.
The casino offers the following mini-games for players to enjoy:
-
Poker: A classic card game where players bet on their hand's strength and attempt to create the best possible combination of cards to win the pot.
-
Blackjack: Also known as "21", this game requires players to compete against the pokerDealer by reaching a hand value as close to 21 as possible without exceeding it.
-
Slots: A game of chance where players place bets on a slot and wait for the slot wheel to determine the winner.
To start a mini-game, a waitingRoom must have a minimum of three clients. Once three clients have joined a waitingRoom, they will be presented with the option to choose one of the available mini-games.
Upon selecting a mini-game, the game will start, and the players will be able to interact with each other and the game interface. The outcome of each game will be determined based on the rules of the specific mini-game chosen.
The project incorporates network programming concepts to facilitate communication between clients and the server. The server will handle the game logic, manage rooms, and ensure fair gameplay. Clients will connect to the server to participate in the mini-games and exchange information.
Concurrent programming techniques are employed to ensure smooth and responsive gameplay in a multi-client environment. The project utilizes threads and synchronization mechanisms to handle multiple client requests simultaneously and provide a seamless gaming experience.
The codebase is well-documented using JavaDocs, a documentation generation tool for Java. The JavaDocs provide detailed explanations of classes, methods, and variables, helping developers understand the code and promoting maintainability and collaboration within the development team.
