Playing

• The goal is to create a tile with value 2048.
• Start the game by typing M-x 2048-game, and pressing enter.
• You can move the tiles around with the arrow keys, p/n/b/f, or C-p/C-n/C-b/C-f.
• Whenever the board moves, all tiles slide as far to that direction as they can go. If a tile collides with another tile of the same value, the tiles combine into a tile with double the initial value, and you gain the new tile's value as your score.
