<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-tab-count:1'> </span>Making my
own game was quite the arduous but educational experience.<span
style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>It gave me a lot of perspective as to just
how much work goes into making a game, but also showed me how doable it is.<span
style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>I struggled a lot with a lack of knowledge
and understanding of just how I should go about making the game and thus
created it by programming one aspect at a time and trying to leave everything
as open as possible, having lots of functions that could serve multiple
purposes and could easily be tailored to be given wide-ranging diverse
inputs.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>I had to go back and change
things several times often, fixing bugs or working in new details that I had
missed due to my inexperience with the curses and pthreads libraries.<span
style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>I learned a lot though, and gained great
familiarity with both of these programming libraries.<span
style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>The experience was maddening at times, but
immensely rewarding, and I’m very proud of the cohesive work I’ve
produced.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>If I had the time, I would
love to expand this engine I’ve made into a full-length game.<span
style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>All of the tough work is done and if only I
had a team working for me, this could be just as good as the games that
inspired it, but alas I don’t have 6 months to work on this so I’m happy to
settle with what I’ve got.</p>
