Summary

FiftyTwo is a set of card games, such as Go Fish, Crazy Eights, Hearts, Solitaire, and maybe games like Eucher or Spades. It will be written in Python using the pygame library. Eventually, FiftyTwo will support mesh play with up to four players (for games like Hearts or Spades), single-person play against the computer (basic AI play), and multi-player (on the same computer) play.
