Two Player Game

Created by Olaf Böckmann, Evelyn Hoffarth, Paul Kohler, Max Thannheimer, and lots of prompts for VSCode/GitHub Copilot in the course "Generative AI" by Frank Müller.

Overview

This is a two-player game where each player is represented as a ball on the screen. One player has a mouth on one side of the ball and can chase the other player. The objective is for the player with the mouth to "eat" the other player. Additionally, the game includes a "HAMBURGERS" mode where players can collect hamburgers for extra points.
