About this project

What you'll build: You'll create a classic tic-tac-toe game that runs in a web browser, letting a player compete against a simple computer opponent. The game will have a clickable grid, keep track of turns, and announce the winner or a draw.

Why it's a good starter: This project is perfect for beginners: it's small, visually rewarding, and introduces you to key game development concepts without being overwhelming. You'll use free tools and see your progress right away.

What you'll learn: You'll gain practical skills in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, including how to create interactive web pages and basic game logic. You'll also get experience with simple AI, making your code respond to player actions.

Milestones

1. Setup & Plan

10 marks 5d

Submit a simple project plan (1-2 paragraphs) outlining your approach and a sketch/mockup of your tic-tac-toe board layout (hand-drawn or digital). Show folder and file setup with placeholders for HTML, CSS, JS.

2. Core Build: Game Board & User Play

30 marks 10d

Submit a working HTML page with a visible 3x3 tic-tac-toe grid and basic CSS styling. Implement player click handling so a human can play Xs and Os on the board (no opponent yet).

3. Core Build: Computer Opponent & Win Logic

30 marks 10d

Submit updated code where, after the player moves, a simple computer opponent (random empty square) makes its move. Add logic to detect and display a win or draw. Show winning or draw message on the page.

4. Testing & Polish

15 marks 7d

Submit a polished version with small improvements: reset/restart button, minor bug fixes, and improved visuals (e.g., colors or hover effect). Provide a short checklist or notes on your testing process and fixes made.

5. Demo & Short Report

15 marks 7d

Submit a 2-minute screen recording demo (or live link) showing your game and a brief (half-page) report describing your process, what you learned, and any challenges or ideas for future improvements.
