# Lark Cycles

This is a Python/Tkinter port of the 1988 Amiga programming game [_Warrior Cycles_](https://corewar.co.uk/warriorcycles.htm) by Rico Mariana.

In this port, the player logic is implemented in Starlark.

It demonstrates the use of [Starlark for Python](https://github.com/dbohdan/starlark-python).

The initial port was made by AI (Kimi K2.6) with only high-level human guidance.
