So basically we're in the end of our C-course, and I need an idea for a program. It doesn't have to be nothing flashy, but I want to make it cool.

I am thinking of an ASCII-game or something, but can't figure out what wouldn't be too hard to do, but would blow the mind of my teacher.

Edit: This is it so far:
Code:
#include <stdio.h> int main() {     while(1) {              // do shit                            if (0)                 break;     }     return 0; }

Pretty much every game I know of to code is easiest to code in terms of objects.

Look up Sopwith and try and recode it!

That isn't a game and fractals are awesome but games > fractals.

Unless you can make a game BASED around fractals, or INCLUDING fractals.

My next suggestion is tempyst.

I'd rather keep it simpler, since I am getting 5 ( the best number) off the course anyway.

How about ASCII-Maze? Boring?

Very. Checkers is far less boring.

Lulz. I got the idea myself now. It's basic, but I won't tell it yet. I'll rather post the thing for testing later. ;)
