Archon

I used to play Archon: The Light and the Dark on my Commodore 64 for hours against the computer when I was a kid. As an adult, I keep having ambitions to re- (or de-)make this game despite the numerous official remakes out there.

For some reason, I chose to use 12x12 sprites for this implementation.
