ncurses 2048 or nc2048 is a C implementation of the popular mobile game called '2048'. It is designed to be played in a Terminal. The project was tested on Ubuntu 22.10 and Ubuntu for WSL2.
NOTE: This project was made to help the original creator learn about ncurses and the standard C99 library. It might not fully follow the C99 guidelines and conventions.

- The
populateRandomBlock
gets inefficient when the field fills up, since it re-generates a random x and y coordinate for the block until it finds one that is empty. We plan to improve this in the future. - The rendering and game logic should be executed on separate threads.
