Description:

The current codebase has been developed primarily for Linux terminals, utilizing modules and methods specific to Linux environments (e.g., termios for disabling echo, ANSI escape codes for color, etc.). We need to ensure this code runs seamlessly on Windows systems, specifically within Windows terminals, while maintaining compatibility with Linux.

Important Note: Please make a copy of the code to create a Windows-compatible version rather than modifying the original Linux-specific code.

Requirements:

  1. Code Compatibility:

    • Adapt functions dependent on Linux-specific libraries (such as termios) to work with Windows. For example, consider using cross-platform libraries or conditionally importing modules based on the operating system.
    • Ensure compatibility with Windows command prompt and PowerShell, especially for color output and cursor control.
  2. File Structure:

    • Create a separate module or file for Windows-specific adjustments to avoid changes in the original Linux code.
  3. Code Testing:

    • Thoroughly test the Windows version to ensure all functionalities (e.g., player input handling, cursor visibility, color display) work as expected.
    • Verify that the changes do not disrupt the functionality on Linux systems.
  4. Documentation:

    • Document any Windows-specific implementations or workarounds applied, and include instructions for running the game on Windows terminals.
