Text Souls

A cute Dark Souls-esque text-based game written in Rust.

I needed practice in Rust so I made this. I wrote this a few years ago for my AP Computer Science Principles project, so it's likely riddled with beginner level bugs and terrible programming practices.

This project was apparently only good enough to warrant a grade of 4/5, so take from that what you will.

Good luck beating the Taurus Demon.
