2048

A terminal-based implementation of the classic 2048 game, written in C and rendered with ncurses.
Includes a start/pause menu, per-move hints, colorized tiles, and an idle auto-move after 5 seconds.

If you just want to play: make && make run

• Idle auto-move: if no key is pressed for 5 seconds, the game picks the move that frees the most cells (direction is displayed above the board)
