I added another location to the map on Axes, Armour & Ale https://github.com/cyberfilth/Axes-Armour-Ale So next I'll be looking to add overworld encounters and a village / town location.

This coming week I plan on procrastinating a little more with different dungeon styles. My game has several different environments so far, with more planned. So I get to play around with cellular automata, BSP and other techniques. https://github.com/cyberfilth/Axes-Armour-Ale

This week has been a week of refactoring... not intentionally though. I'd planned to start adding multiple dungeons all over the overworld map. But every time I started to add this, I found a previously undiscovered bug in some part of my code. My save file was duplicating saved data in several places, and not reading it back correctly when reloading the game. So I've streamlined the save/load process and, touch wood (taps head), think that I'd squashed all the bugs now. https://github.com/cyberfilth/Axes-Armour-Ale

This week hasn't been earth-shatteringly productive, but I did (fingers crossed) manage to squash all bugs in my Throw Projectiles and Fire Bow code. Binaries for Windows and Linux are at https://github.com/cyberfilth/Axes-Armour-Ale/releases/tag/Alpha51 for testing.

Does anyone care about CLI/TUI games?
I think having to use a terminal is the scary part for many people. rltk/bracket-lib can be used to get a similar look and feel if that's what's important, but it is geared toward roguelikes.

Minimal 2D library for games? I'm struggling a bit to settle on one to learn.
Maybe bracket-lib from the amethyst authors? Iām currently working through that book and find the library quite intuitive and simple to use. It started out as a toolkit for rouge-like games but has been getting more general. On that note, I recommend the hands-on-rust book which teaches rust concepts while building games with bracket-lib. As you have read the book, Iām sure you would get through the first chapters quickly.

Bevy ECS or custom implementation?
https://github.com/amethyst/bracket-lib has a great integration with Bevy, designed for exactly this sort of thing.
- libtcod use 8x8 font but scaled up to 16x16?

How difficult could it be to make a console program that looks like this and has a game loop running on a separate thread? Any suggestions or crate recommendations are welcome!
I've been doing some experiments with terminal based games and landed on https://github.com/amethyst/bracket-lib It's not exactly terminal based in the sense that it actually runs on OpenGL by default. But that's a plus imho because dealing with the bits of the terminal window that can change outside of your control (like fonts, window resize, etc) is a giant pita. It does let you swap the backend to run on crossterm if that's what you really want to do but if what you're after is the aesthetic like I am having bracket_lib handling all that makes life so much better.

Console handling in bevy?
Hi, If you are interested in console and roguelike there is a specialised engine made just for that called bracket-lib made by Herbert Wolverson. He also has a book called Hands On Rust that is an excilent introduction to rust game development where you make a roguelike dungeon crawler in Rust using bracket-lib. I am finishing the book now and I can fully recommend it.
What are some alternatives?
bevy - A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust
Amethyst - Data-oriented and data-driven game engine written in Rust
VTerminal - A new Look-and-Feel (LaF) for Java, which allows for a grid-based display of Unicode characters with custom fore/background colors, font sizes, and pseudo-shaders. Originally designed for developing Roguelike/lite games.
libtcod - A collection of tools and algorithms for developing traditional roguelikes. Such as field-of-view, pathfinding, and a tile-based terminal emulator.
bevy_webgl2 - WebGL2 renderer plugin for Bevy game engine
python-tcod - A high-performance Python port of libtcod. Includes the libtcodpy module for backwards compatibility with older projects.
Rust-HTML-roguelike - Rust WASM + HTML roguelike
mORMot2 - OpenSource RESTful ORM/SOA/MVC Framework for Delphi and FreePascal
rot.js - ROguelike Toolkit in JavaScript. Cool dungeon-related stuff, interactive manual, documentation, tests!
hUGETracker - The music composition suite for the Nintendo Game Boy
