- Look at citations for resources I cited during the development of the game.
This game was designed to be minimally educational and informative and should not be considered academically relevant. Though I've utilised a number of papers for it, it still shouldn't be considered anything more than a product for a hackathon.
Do look at citations.md to see the resources I used while creating the project.
- get the game ready to submit for SimpliHacks 2.0.
- complete other locations such as India, Australia and Venice.
- complete citations for India, Australia and Venice.
- upload on
pip
. - add more comprehensive tasks on the game and sophisticated player development system.
