Mancala 0.1.0

Mancala project is an SDL implementation of the African strategy game.

This is a program which allows you to play it. It uses SDL for graphics, so it should be (relatively) portable and toolkit-agnostic.

Mancala is a very simple, easy-to-learn game. Each player begins with a vertical row of holes or pits filled with a certain number of stones. At either end of the board are the players home pits, which are used to keep score. (In this case, the human player has the left row and the bottom home pit.)

A move is made by typing the number corresponding to the hole you wish to move from. The stones are then picked up and distributed, one to each hole, moving downward until your home pit is reached, and then moving upwards through your opponents row, bypassing his/her home, and moving back downwards in a circle, until all the stones have been distributed.
