the asciigame library

asciigame

ASCIIGAME is a C library for developing ASCII-based games, inspired by Omega-RPG and Nethack.

ASCIIGAME takes advantage of function pointers to make object-oriented-like C programming possible.

To build the library, type make release. To build and run the test, type make test.

To compile your game with the library, add the -L. -lasciigame flags to your compiler.

The documentation can be found in the subdirectory doc.

Stuff to note:

• Every int-returning function in ASCIIGAME shall return 1 upon success and 0 upon error.
• The top right character that can be accessed by screen.set is {1,1}.
• Before accessing any NPCs, set active_npc.
• Actually, on second thought, don't use NPCs. They're untested.
• If you're not using GCC or Clang, you suck. And you need to call asciigame_init upon start.
