TicTacToe 0.5 is now out! weepeeeeeeeeee!!

October 1, 2008 at 1:29 am (game download) (, , )

Woot! after so long I sat again and continued to work on TicTacToe. This time I wanted to give it more polish on the single player side! I’m not sure if I have talked about it before, but TicTacToe has now a single player mode (which is unfortunately a little bit inefficient on cpu, but works well). So, I was 4-1 behind from computer, and it kept winning.

Here is the source package, download it and enjoy!
