Todo

Although this game compiles and runs, it can be better! I made up a little list of things than can be done to make this cool game even cooler:

• Making score go beyond single digits ❌

• Get more use from virtual terminal sequences for better graphics ❌

• Main menu to choose difficulty (or speed of the ball) ❌

• Editable players names ❌

• Player nikname at the top ❌

• Table for best players ❌

• More pleasant gameover screen ❌
