Watching that cascade unfold correctly for the first time, opening up a whole empty region from a single click, was the fun part of this one. + +There's also a chording shortcut that reveals every unflagged tile around the one you're hovering, for clearing a region in one go once you've flagged its mines. + +## Controls + +- Left click — reveal a tile +- Right click — flag/unflag a tile +- `Space` — chord (reveal all unflagged neighbors of the hovered tile) + +## Building + +Needs SDL2 and SDL2_ttf. + +```sh +make +./mine_sweeper +``` + +## License + +GPLv3 — see `LICENSE`. |
