Light Box Puzzle - a basic library and terminal interface for a light box puzzle game I enjoyed and implemented as a fun programming exercise in Rust.

lightbox -- A Simple Puzzle Game

Rules copied from Black Box from Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection. Simon Tatham's online implementation. This implementation was created independently from the same set of rules - I haven't seen Simon Tatham's source code. As such, this is not intended as a port to rust -- simply a fun programming exercise I undertook to recreate a puzzle game I enjoyed.

2. Build the executable.
   cargo build --release
3. Run the executable and play!
