• Controls:
  • Swipe: Use swipe gestures (up, down, left, right) to move tiles.
• Winning: Reach the 2048 tile to win the game.
• Game Over: The game ends when no moves are possible.

   cd The2048

2. Install dependencies:

• Game Logic:

  • The game board is a 4x4 grid initialized with two random tiles.
  • Tiles slide and merge according to 2048 game rules.
