About

-----

Connect Four is a two-player connection game in which the players first choose a colour and then take turns dropping one coloured disc from the top into a seven-column, six-row vertically suspended grid. The pieces fall straight down, occupying the next available space within the column. The objective of the game is to be the first to form a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line of four of one's own discs.





The board size can be adjusted by changing values of `board_width` and `board_height` in program (default set to 4x6). Similarly, the PyGame window size can be adjusted by changing values of `window_width` and `window_height` (default set to 640x480).

Also feel free to pass on remarks and suggestions to increase the quality of the code.

Prerequisites

What things you need to run the program:

- Python Compiler (3.7 Recommended)
