BrogueLite VS tcod_tutorial_v2

If you're looking for an easy version of Brogue my favorite to this day is still Brogue Lite, unfortunately not up to date to the last CE version but I love it:https://github.com/HomebrewHomunculus/BrogueLite

Also, since you've mentioned that you really like to react to what your enemies might to, I must recommend you play the "BrogueLite" (https://github.com/HomebrewHomunculus/BrogueLite) version of the game, since it makes some very welcome changes to the vanilla game if you don't like to be manipulating RNG that much (the most important change is that it eliminates completely the identification minigame).

There's also Brogue Lite, a version of Brogue that removes identification and "cursed crap" items. I like it pretty well - it does a good job removing Brogue's horrifically ritualized early game, aka "try your potions while standing on your head in pool of water..."

And the old repository can still be found here: https://github.com/HomebrewHomunculus/BrogueLite/releases/tag/v1.9.3-hotfix-2

For compiling? Nope, I've built a MacOS executable of a game using Github Actions (in addition to the Win and Linux versions).

No new code, but I've been creating QoL issues for the backlog. I think colour-coded item names will be really great - no more hunting in your inventory for that strength potion. Showing stat requirements in red if you don't meet them will make inventory juggling faster as well.

The map shouldn't be hidden by the changes. You can compare your sources with the expected part-6 sources here.

The old branches from 2020 don't work anymore. So I tried to get the changes from the new version and update the old part-13 (final) branch. You can find it in backports branch of my repo. This won't be merged with upstream, and here is the reason why.

engine is supposed to exist as engine.py in your projects working directory. See the part-3 example code for the correct layout. Something as simple as running main.py from a directory other its own will cause imports to not be found, so try running the sample code once.

The engine itself had a few fixes which were planned for a 2021 tutorial which wasn't finished, those changes and panned ones are listed here and include things like a dedicated data directory, most modules being moved into a package, an updated color scheme, automated linting, and automated deployment of Win/Mac/Linux builds. Since then I didn't do much other than test a scene graph implementation that I've mentioned previously.

I've made an issue to keep track of my current progress, and I'd also like suggestions on what people want updated in the tutorial.

I finally remembered to add a license to the v2 Python tutorial. It is now in the public domain.

The latest tutorial with type-hinting is the "new" one, but this is if you wanted to follow the tutorial. To review the code itself you should look at the GitHub repository instead. This tutorial was written for Python 3.7.
