Show HN: I made a collection of games for playing in a terminal

Hello HackerNews, I'm Kaamkiya, the author of this program. It's a collection of minimal games made for terminals, like 2048, Hangman, and even two player games like pong. They're all text-based, but they can actually be quite fun.

If you want to test it right now, you can do this:

go run github.com/Kaamkiya/gg@latest

I started this project out of boredom, honestly. I was bored, and when I'm bored I like to code or play video games. So I coded video games. I kept them really minimal though, because I'm not great at gamedev and thought it would be easier to contribute to text-based games than a huge project.

If you have game ideas, tips for improvement, or any feedback, I'm open to hearing it. I'm also open to PRs and issues on the GitHub.

Thanks :)
