Maybe you should experiment for a bit before asking for help.

If you have 0 clue where to begin, it may be prudent to select a project where you do know where to begin.

Because we expect some kind of effort first before people come to us. Try something out!

You are in grade 12 comp sci, so I'm assuming you have some basic programming knowledge. Sit back and think about what kind of things you need. For instance, why don't you first try to program some kind of fighting simulation? Make a "battlefield" where two characters can move around or something.

Furthermore, all we know about your project is "Turing Combat", which is far from descriptive.

Try restating your question. What is your goal here? What is the premise? Do you have any ideas? How do you think you can accomplish this?

Is this project an assignment for school? If so, what requirements did your teacher give you?

If it is not for school, I would suggest brainstorming about exactly what kind of game you want to make. Try to make your idea more detailed. Like, start by designing the game without worrying about the code: what moves can characters do, how much damage do moves do relative to hit points, how large is gameboard relative to characters, is there scrolling or is total map always visible, is it real-time or turn-based, will user control character with mouse or keyboard, etc.

When programming, I try to focus on deciding exactly what I want to do first... in as much detail as possible... then you can start worrying about how to make it in code. This is an oversimplification, but that's the basic idea.

Otherwise, you are coding >before< you know what you are making.

I hope this helps! Smile
