Aeroplane Chess (simplified Chinese: 飞行棋; traditional Chinese: 飛行棋; pinyin: fēixíng qí, literally "Aviation Game" or "Flying Chess") is a Chinese cross-and-circle board game similar to the western game of Ludo and the Indian game of Pachisi. Developed in the 20th century, Aeroplane Chess features airplanes as pieces instead of the more abstract pawns and beehive-shaped pieces found in the games from which it is derived.

This is the final project for my CS111: Intro to Computer Science at Carleton College, Fall 2014.
The game is Human vs Computer.
First I created a text-based version where a human player uses the terminal window to control the chesses and read game information.
then I updated the game with a graphics-based version where a human player interacts with both the terminal window and the graphic chess board to have a more direct intuition about the game.
In either the text-based or graphics-based version folder, type python system
in the terminal to run system.py
and start the game.
