+# nsweeper
+
+A first pass at Minesweeper in ncurses — a grid of tiles, a quarter of them mined, move a cursor with WASD and press enter to dig. It's the roughest of the terminal projects here and it shows: the neighbor-counting function (`cac`) recurses in a way that doesn't quite work out, and there are leftover debug prints and a stray `getch()` still sitting in that loop from tracking it down mid-session. It was never revisited after the first commit.
+
+Comes with a prebuilt `nsweeper` binary checked into the repo alongside the source, from whenever it was last built.
+
+## Controls
+
+- `W`/`A`/`S`/`D` — move the cursor
+- `Enter` — dig the current tile
+
+## Building
+
+Needs ncurses.
+
+```sh
+cc nsweeper.c -lncurses -o nsweeper
+./nsweeper
+```
