💣 Minesweeper — Terminal Edition (C)

A fully playable Minesweeper clone written in pure C, designed to run in any terminal. No external libraries required — just the C standard library.

🎮 Inspiration

We wanted to recreate a classic game using the most minimal setup possible—just C and the terminal. Minesweeper is perfect for this because it relies entirely on logic, recursion, and grid traversal rather than graphics.

🧩 What it does

• Fully playable Minesweeper in the terminal
  
• Random mine generation with safe first-click logic
  
• Recursive reveal (flood-fill) for empty cells
  
• Flagging system for marking suspected mines
  
• Win/loss detection with real-time board updates

• Number of adjacent mines
  
• Current state (hidden, revealed, flagged)
