Game Description

Veggie Heist is a game where the player tries to harvest as many vegetables as possible before the rabbits eat them all.

2. Veggie: Vegetable subclass of FieldInhabitant
3. Creature: Base class for moving objects like rabbits and Captain
4. Captain: Player character, subclass of Creature
