HN comment orderThis is interesting. Though, for my part, rather than... class Player { playTurn(warrior) { warrior.walk(); ... } } ...I would much rather have something like... import { Warrior } from '@warriorjs/cli'; class MyWarrior extends Warrior { playTurn() { this.walk(); ... } } ...or... function playTurn(warrior) { warrior.walk(); ... } The current style is a weird mix of functional and object-oriented handling.
I really wish technical people would explain what they mean when they say AI, and quickly name which algorithms they're using. If they don't, it's just clickbait.
This game is totally awesome.
