The Spider Game

Overview

The Spider Game is an AI-powered game inspired by classic snake mechanics.
Players control an ant that moves across a board while avoiding a spider that moves like a chess knight.
The game demonstrates pathfinding algorithms in a fun and interactive way.

• Platform: Python with Pygame for graphics and game logic.
• Algorithms: Implemented Breadth-First Search (BFS), Depth-First Search (DFS), and 3 A* heuristics.
• Gameplay: Interactive spider chasing simulation with dynamic decision-making.
• Learning Focus: Demonstrates AI pathfinding and search algorithm behavior visually.

Achievements / Highlights

• Built a fully playable AI-powered game with Python and Pygame.
• Implemented multiple search algorithms for dynamic spider movement.
• Designed a grid-based board to simulate chess-like moves for the spider.
• Created visual feedback to understand AI decision-maki
