How thomasdgn/alterdune works

ALTERDUNE is a C++ mini-RPG with a playable console version and an optional SFML frontend sharing the same game engine. The player starts a run, advances through region-gated encounters, resolves fights through combat or mercy choices, and earns progression and one of three endings. The README also describes inventory, bestiary, appearance selection, and frontend views. Core implementation and frontend wiring are supported by the sampled files; several documented subsystems are represented at their existing enclosing paths because their source was not sampled.
