Tic Tac Toe Game using Java Swing in Java
By Yashika JainHi, Today we are learning how to develop a Tic Tac Toe game using Java Swing in Java. This project uses some java swing functionalities to provide GUI.
Java-Swing is a lightweight and cross-platform package in java that is used to provide GUI to Java projects.
Let’s discuss the logic and code to develop this Game
So to build this game we are programing 2 classes.
First, we are discussing the code and logic’s to create TicTacToeGame.java
In this class first, we are creating a java swing application window using JFrame and also creating 2 JPanel’s one for the text to display and another one for the 9 buttons, and also creating a constructor because whenever we create an object of this class a new game window and a new game will be created.
public class TicTacToeGame implements ActionListener {// implements ActionListener Class to this class
JFrame frame = new JFrame();// Frame object
JPanel t_panel = new JPanel();// Pannel for text
JPanel bt_panel = new JPanel();// Pannel for buttons
JLabel textfield = new JLabel();// Label object to display text
JButton[] bton = new JButton[9];// creating an array of button's because in tic tac toe game there are 9 position's
int chance_flag = 0;
Random random = new Random();
boolean pl1_chance;
TicTacToeGame() {
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setSize(800, 800);
frame.getContentPane().setBackground(new Color(50, 50, 50));
frame.setTitle("Tic Tac Toe");
frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
frame.setVisible(true);
textfield.setBackground(new Color(120, 20, 124));
textfield.setForeground(new Color(25, 255, 0));
textfield.setFont(new Font("Ink Free", Font.BOLD, 75));
textfield.setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.CENTER);
textfield.setText("Tic Tac Toe");
textfield.setOpaque(true);
t_panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
t_panel.setBounds(0, 0, 800, 100);
bt_panel.setLayout(new GridLayout(3, 3));// setting layout of bt_pannel as gridlayout
bt_panel.setBackground(new Color(150, 150, 150));
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
bton[i] = new JButton();// creating object for each button element of array
bt_panel.add(bton[i]);// adding each button to the pannel for buttons
bton[i].setFont(new Font("Ink Free", Font.BOLD, 120));
bton[i].setFocusable(false);
bton[i].addActionListener(this);
}
t_panel.add(textfield);
frame.add(t_panel, BorderLayout.NORTH);
frame.add(bt_panel);
startGame();// To start Game
}Now we are creating some functions to add some functionalities like start game, check the player move, Game Over, player one win, and player two wins.
public void startGame() {
try {
textfield.setText("Loading....");
Thread.sleep(4000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
int chance=random.nextInt(100);
if (chance%2 == 0) {
pl1_chance = true;
textfield.setText("X turn");
} else {
pl1_chance = false;
textfield.setText("O turn");
}
}
public void gameOver(String s){
chance_flag = 0;
Object[] option={"Restart","Exit"};
int n=JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(frame, "Game Over\n"+s,"Game Over",JOptionPane.YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION,JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE,null,option,option[0]);
if(n==0){
frame.dispose();
new TicTacToeGame();
}
else{
frame.dispose();
}
}
public void matchCheck() {// In this function we are checking wining condition's using conditional statments
if ((bton[0].getText() == "X") && (bton[1].getText() == "X") && (bton[2].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(0, 1, 2);
}
else if ((bton[0].getText() == "X") && (bton[4].getText() == "X") && (bton[8].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(0, 4, 8);
}
else if ((bton[0].getText() == "X") && (bton[3].getText() == "X") && (bton[6].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(0, 3, 6);
}
else if ((bton[1].getText() == "X") && (bton[4].getText() == "X") && (bton[7].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(1, 4, 7);
}
else if ((bton[2].getText() == "X") && (bton[4].getText() == "X") && (bton[6].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(2, 4, 6);
}
else if ((bton[2].getText() == "X") && (bton[5].getText() == "X") && (bton[8].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(2, 5, 8);
}
else if ((bton[3].getText() == "X") && (bton[4].getText() == "X") && (bton[5].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(3, 4, 5);
}
else if ((bton[6].getText() == "X") && (bton[7].getText() == "X") && (bton[8].getText() == "X")) {
xWins(6, 7, 8);
}
else if ((bton[0].getText() == "O") && (bton[1].getText() == "O") && (bton[2].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(0, 1, 2);
}
else if ((bton[0].getText() == "O") && (bton[3].getText() == "O") && (bton[6].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(0, 3, 6);
}
else if ((bton[0].getText() == "O") && (bton[4].getText() == "O") && (bton[8].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(0, 4, 8);
}
else if ((bton[1].getText() == "O") && (bton[4].getText() == "O") && (bton[7].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(1, 4, 7);
}
else if ((bton[2].getText() == "O") && (bton[4].getText() == "O") && (bton[6].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(2, 4, 6);
}
else if ((bton[2].getText() == "O") && (bton[5].getText() == "O") && (bton[8].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(2, 5, 8);
}
else if ((bton[3].getText() == "O") && (bton[4].getText() == "O") && (bton[5].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(3, 4, 5);
} else if ((bton[6].getText() == "O") && (bton[7].getText() == "O") && (bton[8].getText() == "O")) {
oWins(6, 7, 8);
}
else if(chance_flag==9) {
textfield.setText("Match Tie");
gameOver("Match Tie");
}
}
public void xWins(int x1, int x2, int x3) {
bton[x1].setBackground(Color.RED);
bton[x2].setBackground(Color.RED);
bton[x3].setBackground(Color.RED);
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
bton[i].setEnabled(false);
}
textfield.setText("X wins");
gameOver("X Wins");
}
public void oWins(int x1, int x2, int x3) {
bton[x1].setBackground(Color.RED);
bton[x2].setBackground(Color.RED);
bton[x3].setBackground(Color.RED);
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
bton[i].setEnabled(false);
}
textfield.setText("O Wins");
gameOver("O Wins");
}Now we are creating an action performed function that is trigger when any button is clicked.
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
if (e.getSource() == bton[i]) {
if (pl1_chance) {
if (bton[i].getText() == "") {
bton[i].setForeground(new Color(255, 0, 0));
bton[i].setText("X");
pl1_chance = false;
textfield.setText("O turn");
chance_flag++;
matchCheck();
}
} else {
if (bton[i].getText() == "") {
bton[i].setForeground(new Color(0, 0, 255));
bton[i].setText("O");
pl1_chance = true;
textfield.setText("X turn");
chance_flag++;
matchCheck();
}
}
}
}
}These are the logics and code snippets to create TicTacToeGame.java class.
Next, we will create a main class to create the object of TicTacToeGame.java class.
new TicTacToeGame();
So these are logic’s and code snippets to develop this game now you just need to copy and paste the given below code and develop your own Tic Tac Toe Game.
