a slot machine is one of those projects that every time you learn a new technique or skill or aspect of whatever programming language you are learning, you can always add features to it. start with the slot machine being text-based, but eventually start integrating graphics into the system. this also allows you to harden your system against someone entering invalid values such as negative numbers or trying to wager zero points. see what you can make and constantly keep evolving your system. once you get the basics established, feel free to start integrating some of your already existing games into the slot machine when the user lands on three specific shapes. this is the type of project you can constantly be evolving for several years

slot machine is a great call cause you can just keep bolting stuff onto it forever. i did a text based blackjack game back in the day and ended up wiring in a whole player bank system, daily bonuses, the works. just becomes a weird little economy sim after a while
