BYOW: Build Your Own World

This is a simple 2D tile based RPG game uses custom engine built by the class staff.

At the beginning, player has 3 options, to start a new game, load a game, or quit the game. If player choose to start a new game, the game will ask player to input a number as the seed which will be used to randomly generate hallways and rooms based on the seed. If choose to load a game, the game will load from the saved state. If choose to quit, the game will shut down.

The goal of this simple game is to find the switch and the door in the map. At the beginning the player will only have partial vision to the map until finding the switch player will be able to.
