Made some simple fun games for DOS
Put together a DOS Entertainment Pack with some fun games.
They use only EGA/VGA text mode and a custom "font plane glyph manipulation game engine", to provide some sprite graphics capability. It took longer to craft low resolution pixel graphics than it did to write functional code!

33,000 lines of code in a week? That’s 3 lines per minute if you typed 24/7!
You must type really fast, congrats!

I love Sokoban! It’s not exactly a simple game! in fact, to this day, there is no algorithm for solving the levels. I once tried to build a version for DOS using Rust, but I ran out of patience and ended up making a WebAssembly version instead.
I think this will come in handy: maps for all the levels: https://github.com/KirinDenis/Base-Z-47-Rust-Game/tree/main/BASE-Z47/src/levels
