Day 1 of #100DaysOfCode: Built My First Project

A 16-year-old developer began a 100-day coding challenge by building a terminal-based Pong game using Python's curses library. The project marks the first step toward a goal of learning Python and eventually building AI agents and multi-agent systems.

The Setup

I'm 16 years old and starting my coding journey in 2026. After using Twitter, GitHub, and setting up my domain ms.blurbisht.fun, I decided to commit to #100DaysOfCode.

The Project: Pong Game CLI

A terminal-based two-player Pong game built with Python's curses library. Demonstrates:

if key == ord('w'):
    left_paddle.move_up()

Why I Built It: To move beyond theory to actual shipping. My goals: learn Python → build AI agents → create multi-agent systems.

What's Next: Day 2: Not Planned!!
