Hello guys I'm new to shell scripting and I need to make a game using shell script. I want to know if it is possible for me a total noob to shell scripting to make this game.
The game concept is simple:
First thing when you launch the script you get a menu in which you select if you want to login or signup or start a game or get more information or quit the game.
Second, you have to be able to create an account and the game should be able to store usernames and passwords and their respective scores. Also you should be able to delete your account if you want to.
Third, it is a word sorting game, you get 5 letters and you put as much words as you can using the given 5 letters.
Fourth the game should be able to tell if the words you enter are correct using a dictionary which I will provide.
Fifth, it should be able to keep score and give the total score at the end of the game.
And that's it I want to know if it is possible to create such a game using shell script and the difficulty degree.
Thank you all.
PS: I have a week to make it starting from tommorow.
