Thread: Simple for loop game engine please with break (simple question)

Code:

// game_loop_test.c


#include <stdio.h>


int main()
{
	// Repeat block of three printf to console three times then break
	
	for (int tries = 1; tries < 3; tries++)
	{
		printf("Start Game: \n");
		printf("Game Loop program");
		printf("\n");


		if (tries == 3)
		{
			break;
		}
		tries++;
	}


	return 0;
}

Please, how's everyone doing, this is a simple re-write of a game engine of a Hangman game game engine of a for loop of a longer program written in C. Please, I want the block of printf statements to loop and break once 3 is hit. Also, would even be better if the counter counted down from 3...2...1. (used decrement operator). Thanks.
