A blackjack game written in Odin, running in the terminal.
This was a project I felt I needed to do to be able to escape tutorial's hell and start actually learning. I decided to recreate Blackjack because of my kinda sick love for the game and felt it was a good opportunity to get my hands dirty with the language.
The rules follow what I can remember about my trips to Singapore, so double is allowed only on 9, 10 or 11. I didn't make a distinction between hard and soft, please be gentle.
There will probably be bugs, but I think it turned out pretty well.
