When the game is launched, the player is tasked with placing their ships. The keyboard arrow keys move the ship and the spacebar rotates it. Pressing enter places the ship and proceeds to placing the next ship.

The player is prompted to confirm placement after placing the final ship. They can replace any ship or press zero to continue. This image shows a bug where I wasn't repainting colored board squares correctly.

It would be fairly easy to have the computer opponent attack random coordinates but a more realistic opponent wouldn't attack the same spot twice. Also, a smart opponent would keep attacking an area after registering a hit.

It was deeply satisfying once this basic opponent logic was implemented.

The game is over once one of the players has sunk all of their opponent's ships.
