That's awesome! It's always exciting to see not only low level game development, but also RTS development - my favourite childhood genre. I think C has much underutilised potential as a game dev language, especially as data oriented design (eg ECS) is coming into prominence.

I'm also building an open source game in my spare time, although it's nowhere near as far along as this (and I'm also a massive noob at game dev) - it's a civ-type game in three.js designed to showcase bottom up organising behaviour; think age of empires 2, if the villagers determined their own behaviour. I shared it on HN years ago but shelved it until recently when I was looking for a fun project to pick back up - https://github.com/ajeffrey/civarium.
