NathanCheckers project is a mouse-driven, graphical implementation of Checkers. American Standard Checkers rules are enforced.

Known Bugs/Issues

All versions: It appears that sound support currently requires the game to be run from a writable drive (not a disk image or CD).
Windows: An extra command prompt window stays open. Runs on Windows 2000, but reportedly you need to minimize and maximize it before you can see the gameboard.
Linux: Requires PyGame 1.6 or above.
OS X: No quit menu-item (just close the window). How do you add menu items in PyGame anyway?

Requirements:
Python
PyGame

What's New in This Release:
This release is centered around a major theme overhaul, as well as the addition of a second theme aimed at kids.
There is also one major bugfix (getting kinged now ends a turn under all conditions), and a lot of code cleanup and minor tweaks and fixes.
