For now, the game board is static and the same for both players. The purpose of this is to focus more on the game logic and the multiplayer aspect of the game. If a player hits all of the other player's ships, the game will end. and the player will be declared the winner. The game will then end and the players can play again by refreshing their clients.
This is a multiplayer naval warfare game. The game is played on a 10x10 grid. Each player has 5 ships to place on the grid. The ships are: Carrier (5 spaces), Battleship (4 spaces), Cruiser (3 spaces), Submarine (3 spaces), and Destroyer (2 spaces). The players take turns guessing the location of the other player's ships. The game ends when all of one player's ships have been sunk.
Open two instances of the client in your browser. Then try to guess where the other player's ships are located. The game will tell you if you hit or missed. The game ends when all of one player's ships have been sunk.
