Steel & Blood

Steel & Blood is a medieval fantasy turn-based combat game built in Python as part of a long-term software development and learning project.

The project began as a command-line application focused on practicing object-oriented programming, game systems, debugging, software architecture, and project development. The goal is to continuously expand the game while learning new programming concepts and technologies.
