This is a little Java server-and-applet game I wrote two years ago. I recently got into it again and updated it to the point where I am now confident that there exist conceivable situations in which the server doesn’t crash.
The game is a kind of billiard or miniature golf where all players make their moves simultaneously. Have fun!
Your game is really fun !! I 'm enjoying playing your game, even if it’s pretty hard sometimes :P.
I did not find anyone to play online with (well I guess, because other players were too dumb to be humans ;D , they had to be AI), but I look forward to it. It should be a good idea to show if you’re playing vs human or AI.
No idea if the networking works but the game’s a lot of fun, nicely done!
It got stuck on “Connecting…” 
Thank you for your comments! I’m glad you like it!

Yes, I’m planning to do that. But I don’t want to clutter the interface with labels. Maybe the AI-controlled balls should just be drawn differently, e.g. non-shiny. But as you say, it’s easy to spot because of its “strategy”: Currently it just throws the dice whether it should shoot in the general direction of the sphere or just somwhere random. :

It does! You can’t play the game with the client alone, otherwise:

There seems to be a strange error that only occurs after several hours: The JVM doesn’t print any error message but the server doesn’t react any more, neither to clients nor to the keyboard. Unfortunately I couldn’t reproduce that locally so far.
I think I’ve fixed the problem. The game has been running for several days now.
