Multi-threaded collect objects game using pthread library

Multithreaded Collect Objects Game

This is a multithreaded collect objects game implemented in C++ using pthread library. The game allows two players to collect objects on a game board using different controls. The objective of the game is to collect the maximum number of objects to win.

Game Rules

1. The game board is a grid-based canvas with a specified width and height.
2. Players control their characters using specific keys (arrow keys and shift key for Player 1, and ASDW keys and spacebar for Player 2).
3. Players can move their characters in four directions: up, down, left, and right.
4. Objects are randomly distributed on the game board and can be collected by moving the character over them.
5. Each collected object increases the player's score.
6. The game displays the scores of both players on the screen.
7. The game ends when a certain condition is met (e.g., a time limit or a specific number of objects collected).
8. The player with the highest score at the end of the game wins.
