Cats Calore -
This is a small game for Android that involves selecting a grid of colored squares based on a given set of RGB values. Doing so will uncover a lovely picture of a cat; you can also view these cats with the "Cats" button. There is currently no back button and the user must use the device's back button to go back to the menu. Cat Calore's functionality and styling are very simple and will see improvements in the future. Feedback or pull requests are always welcome!

To Run:
Clone this repo and open the project in Android Studio. From there, you should be able to run and test it in your own environment. Alternatively, you can place the file "app-debug.apk" found in the main directory and run it directly on a mobile device to install it. This app supports a minimum of Android 6.0 SDK, Gradle Version 3.3 and Android Plugin Version 2.3.3.


The images of cats were obtained through the use of thecatapi which supplies a wide variety of cat pictures. 10 of these pictures were selected and put locally with the app.



Future Improvements:
1) Pull random images of cats from the web instead of having it local
2) A back button
3) Customization and Interactivity of the Game


Lessons:
While developing this small app, I have learned about the small limitations that mobile phones have. I have also learned about the various interactions that Activities have with layouts and the potency of the combined efforts of XML and Java code. In addition, I have also learned that reading documentation is incredibly important due to the large amounts of libraries made available to developers.
