No, nor is it particularly surprising. Backgammon isn't a particularly popular board game in most areas. C# and WPF are not very widely used for games. (not impossible, just not that common) And even if someone had written a Backgammon game in C#/WPF, the odds of them releasing the source are even smaller. – GalacticCowboy Jul 14 '10 at 15:39.

Do you want to include animations? A playing board with a pseudo-3d-view?A top-down view is probably easiest and could be done using DOM and/or Canvas. Since DOM is supported in all major Browsers and jQuery offers a nice toolset (including animations) for DOM manipulation, I'd probably pick DOM over Canvas.Since this is a multiplayer game, you'll have to think about where to put the game logic.

The best approach (which also prevents cheating) would be to keep all the game-logic on the server-side (programmed in PHP) and only have rendering logic and user-input in the clients.I don't know about any PHP framework that has a focus on game-development. I'd probably pick a multi-purpose framework like,. This will let you focus on the implementation of the game-logic while it will already provide tools for data-persistence or handling of AJAX-request (which you'll probably use for communication).

Backgammon RulesBackgammon is one of the oldest known boardgames.The object of the game is to move your pieces along the board's triangles and off the board before your opponent does.There are a few different ways that this game is played.In this version your pieces move counterclockwise from the upper right, while your opponent's move clockwise from the bottom right. You can change thedirection of play in Options if you prefer going from bottom right to top right.Additionally, the game is sometimes played in rounds with a scoring system deciding the eventual winner. In this version, each round is its own game, with no point scoring involved.
Your play direction.The game starts with both players each rolling a single die to determine who goes first. The one with the higher roll starts, and usesthe dice he and the opponent rolled to make his first move.Each turn, a player rolls two dice. The numbers shown decide how far the player may move their pieces.If the same number is rolled on both dice, the player plays as if there were four dice, all showing the same number.When moving, you must always move the top piece off a triangle. As you move a piece, you may move onto a triangle that contains:. No pieces. Your own pieces. A single opposing piece.If you move a piece onto an opposing piece, that piece gets removed and placed onto the middle of the board.That piece's owner must then return it back onto the board, starting from the beginning.
They may not perform any other moves until all their pieces are back on the board.Once all your pieces have made it around the board, you may start removing pieces (also known as 'bearing off'). A piece can bear off if:. You roll a number which corresponds exactly to how far the piece would have to travel to exit the board. Your unused dice all show values greater than what is required to bear any piece off.
In which case, you may bear off the piece that's furthest from the end. NOTE: You must use all your dice if possible! That means you cannot make a move with one dice and then say Pass,if there's any way to use other moves that play both dices. If you ever think the game is not allowing you to make a move that you think should be allowed, ask yourselfwhat your next move would be.
If there's no next move possible, then the game is forcing you to use both dice. About BackgammonBackgammon is the 28th game we make here at CardGames.io. It's been requested a lot over the years, but the main reason it was nevercreated was the custom graphics needed for it. Well, finally we did it! Backgammon is the first game developed by CardGames.io's two newfull time employees, Kjartan and Alexandra! Winning a single game can take a long time, so we decided to just make the simplest version, withoutthe doubling dice and tracking wins over many games. However, if we get a lot of requests for that we might add it later.The game is written in javascript, using the HTML5 Game framework.
The game board and pieces are custom graphics madehere at CardGames.io, the dice and player faces as always come from our favorite clipart site,.As always, bugs, requests, comments can be sent to or you can contact us through our or our very inactive.This is version 2151 of Backgammon.This website uses cookies to store your preferences, and for advertising purposes.
