This repo lacks a license. This means, forking, using, editing, and redistributing this repo and it's contents are technically not allowed. It would be smart to add a LICENSE file to it, or simply copy over the MIT license libminesweeper is using.

The game doesn't at the moment guarantee a path to the exit tile.

This can be solved by using a pathfinding algorithm to check if there's a possible exit path, and if not, remove some mines to make sure there is one.

The board_deinit function has been removed from the implementation (because I assume it's no longer needed), but it still remains in the header file, giving linker errors.

The game should include a basic help entry when running the game without any options or with option like --help.

Since --help opens the manpage, this won't work if the manpage isn't installed (which happens when one runs make install.

This should be fixed by looking for the manpage in the local folder as well.

Let me start by saying thank you for your work on this! I've definitely spent 5+ hrs on this, I keep a stopwatch and track my own high score list. It helps me stay alert if drowsy sometimes while working, a good coffee break. I've been using this since April 2023.

While I admire your homage to Nethack with the hjkl movement, I think an additional key alternative ought to be there on the left side of the keyboard mainly for . open tile. hjkl coupled with . seem too hard on the one's right hand and I feel I might get RSI XD. I think I played long enough to know it might be too stressful on it. Thankfully, f to flag is on the left side and I feel an alternative to open tile nearby, say either of asd, will ease that strain on players a lot.
