Memento repo of the first game I wrote, a minesweeper clone in 2014 using java swing. My, how times have changes.

Minesweeper clone in Java

This project is just an archive to mark off the first game I ever finished in the state it was in when completed. The code is a mess, and I'd clean it up if I didn't have other priorities - code was complete at the end of 2014, and so it shall stay, a monument to games and constant improvement

Simply a minesweeper clone, nothing more. The game is feature complete, and operates just like the classic Minesweeper, but in Java form with pure Java swing UI components. Ew, I know, but it was fun, plays well, and looks decent if you didn't hate the 90's

The only really interesting code here is the reveal algorithm in MinesweeperPanel. If I had the luxury of some time to burn, I'd clean it up and refactor it to have a separation of concerns. There is no reason for all the logic to be in a panel class other than the 'I have a few hours to kill, lets write a game' mentality that I had at the time.

I believe the bomb graphics are fan-made graphics in the likeness of Nintendo's bob-omb character.
