Despite the comedic tone about the 4,000 lines of if/else, don't worry—we're definitely fixing that! But I really had to comment because I found my classmates' and professors' reactions hilarious (they were my testers for college). Seeing everything work smoothly, only to reveal 4,000 lines of if/else behind the scenes, was priceless LOL.

By the way, are you and your partner software engineers? Dude, I'm studying Computer Science and I thought that detail was awesome! If I ever get the chance, I’d love to meet you guys. My university has been killing me lately—I wonder if it was just as tough over there?

Even your professors thought it was AI that's insane! I can imagine their jaws dropping when you revealed the 4000 lines 🤣.

And yes my friend and I are software engineers, we graduated last year. It's been a looong ride, but luckily we survived 😅. I'm sure you'll too, just be patient. 💪🏻 If you need any help, we'd be more happy to connect on LinkedIn, my friend and I have our links in our profile so feel free to drop by anytime. 🙌

HAHA the 4,000 lines of if/else definitely made the game even more memorable 😂 Glad your classmates and professors had fun with it too!

And yes, we were both studying Software Engineering! It's really cool to hear that you're studying Computer Science too. University can definitely be brutal sometimes, so we totally understand the struggle 😭 We’d love to meet you too if we ever get the chance! Good luck with your studies, and keep making cool stuff! 🙌
