Community Creation Highlight: Single Player Pazaak

For those of you who were huge fans of Pazaak in the original Kotor games you should enjoy this newest community creation. Asvarox from the Star Wars: The Old Republic forum has created a singleplayer Pazaak game that allows you to play against a computer opponent. From what we have seen of the game it is a simple but good version of Pazaak that is playable online (via the website, not multiplayer) and offline. Here is more information about the game -

Hi SW:TOR Community

I had to make an "small application" for school something like month ago. I decided to make pazaak game via web with simple AI. Well it was quite buggy and ugly, but my teachers enjoyed it

Recently I decided to rewrite and redesign whole thing. Now it looks much better (still it's not so beautiful) and is less buggy. I'm really happy from the result, so I decided to publish it.

There's no "mulitplayer" mode, you can only fight with the computer. You can also download whole application and play it offline if you want. If you find any bugs or greameear errors (:P) please contact me via PM or this thread. I'm also willing to hear any suggestions and feedback.

Ok time to post the link...
THE LINK - it's on crappy free hosting, I'd love to see it reuploaded somewhere else.

If you like it, I might start working on multiplayer pazaak. From quick overview, it wouldn't take so long, and shouldn't be so hard.

PS. If you think that the code is messy, I agree - I have been programming for 3 years in PHP and 0 years in JavaScript :P
For those that are unfamiliar with Pazaak you can find more about it on Wookiepedia.

Update: We are now hosting a mirror for the offline version of the game available here.
