Retro Games#

Before graphical user interfaces (GUIs), computer input and output all happened through the Terminal. The first computer games were Terminal-based, taking input from the keyboard and using the Terminal’s array of characters as a board. The rigid constraints of this environment led to great creativity.

Retro is a framework for creating Terminal-based games, intended for use by students learning the basics of Object-Oriented Programming.
