Introduction

This Project is a realization of an old game I used to play in a handheld video-game device as a child.

• This simple game is created using ncurses.h library of C on the LINUX OS.
• This involves multithreading using pthreads(POSIX threads) library in C.
• There are threads running in parallel to-
  • keep the fences running to create and illusion of car moving ahead
  • use a Randomized algorithm to generate obstacles
  • calculate the score
  • listen to keyboard inputs
  • refresh the page to re-render the car at new location

How to play the game

• Change lanes to make sure you don't get wrecked by the obstacles for as long as possible.
• The longer you stay on the roads, the higher the score. Keep breaking highscores!!
