Axes-Armour-Ale VS crossterm

It's not a great illustration, but the result looks like this https://github.com/cyberfilth/Axes-Armour-Ale/blob/master/GITscreenshots/Linux_dungeon.png

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

Released an alpha version of Axes, Armour & Ale

There's a screenshot of how it looks in my game (using thinner walls) at https://github.com/cyberfilth/Axes-Armour-Ale

All code, previous releases, and a growing collection of bugs are kept at 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

I have this feeling with all rust apps using crossterm crate as their backend like GitUI for example

I guess you could use EventStream like in this example

Made a small toy using crossterm that simulates the falling sand using the rules laid out by day 14. Bit late to the party but was pretty fun. The moment I saw the prompt I was fully intent on making some sort of visualization for this after getting the solution.

There are plenty of terminal UI libraries that are actually nice to work with. For Python, there's Textual and PyTermGUI. For Rust, there's ratatui and Cursive (or, if you want something a bit lower level, crosster or termion). For Go, there's bubbletea.

Switching the backend of Cursive to crossterm removed dependence on ncurses

I don't know where to start, CrossTerm can read events asynchronously with tokio https://github.com/crossterm-rs/crossterm/blob/master/examples/event-stream-tokio.rs , but I don't have any idea what that really means, I am coming from the HTML Canvas and TypeScript. I want the most simple and basic method possible. Cheers!

Just wondering if anyone has any insight into the current development and maintenance of termion? It currently has 67 issues and 24 merge requests and no code activity has happened since Sep 27 2021, so nothing in over a year. I am of course grateful for the existing project, but just somewhat concerned that it ends up being abandoned or forgotten seeing as it is one of the premiere tui libraries written purely in Rust (other being crossterm).

I might make a gui frontend in the future, but for now i'll focus on the terminal. The terminal doesn't mean it doesnt support mac or windows though, they have terminals too! And the library used for accepting key-input is crossterm which supports windows!

I used crossterm. Really love the simplicity of the API, definitely fit my purposes well.

For the terminal part you could use https://crates.io/crates/crossterm
