Rust Warrior

A textual turn-based AI game for learning Rust, based on Ruby Warrior.

You will progress through levels controlling the Warrior, by deciding which action to take based on the surroundings. These decisions will be defined with Rust code in the play_turn method of Player.

A Note About Rust vs Ruby

There are some notable differences between this game and Ruby Warrior. Since Ruby is an interpreted language, Ruby Warrior is played by interacting with a player.rb script which controls the warrior. The rubywarrior command then leverages the Ruby interpreter to run that script. In the Rust version, you will generate a Rust project which includes rust-warrior as a dependency in its Cargo.toml file. The Game is then imported. To run it, you simply use cargo run like in any other Rust project.
