Library for NES style terminal game.
Background: I want to make a NES Tetris) clone for the terminal, with full resolution, this is achievable through using this ▀ character, and defining back and foreground color. This would result in a 1x2 pixel and by making the game width 256x120 characters this would provide full resolution. I made some tests, creating my own encoding for the different sprites and optimizing everything, which resulted in very quick printing times, even with a normal terminal. Nearly fast enough for the full 60Hz that the NES has, when printing the whole screen. The fact that i don't need to reprint the background (except maybe a tetris), makes 60Hz a kinda realistic goal. My main concern is, that there could occur kind of a screen tearing effect, which i really want to avoid. AFAIK, ncurses has a way to print the whole "window" with a function call to avoid this issue, however I had a lot of issues when trying to use ncurses to print the entire background and figured, that there are better alternatives. I also tried FTXUI and whilst the experience of giving each "pixel" a fore- and background color was much better, i didn't quite find a way to refresh the screen like ncurses. (i think there is some kind of way with the ScreenInteractive class, but i didn't get that to work, and it seemed like there was not a way to color each pixel. with InteractiveScreen you can make your own components with the whole "text()" thing, but this isn't really what i need)

Should I give up?
Try this library for console https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI

Cross platform terminal UI?
Depends on which level of "UI" you want. Personally I like https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI , but if you want to do those old TUI things then probably the (n/pd)curses libraries.

What are some C++ projects with high quality code that I can read through?
I find openMVG very decent, FTXUI might be a good one and nlohmann's json library is also pretty nice. I don't really know of any project that strictly adheres to the core guidelines, except maybe for some of Jason Turner's (sample) projects.

I have made a physics simulator that replicates projectile motion with quadratic drag! Please feel free to download and compile it. Let me know of any bugs!
Okay stupid suggestion I know but I've recently been learning the FTX UI library which basically adds a little bit of UI programming to the terminal and it has canvas that lets you plot pixel by pixel.

Alternative to ncurses for modern C++ (TUI)
Maybe FINAL CUT is something for you. It has its own widgets and can be controlled with the mouse or keyboard.

XPM viewer for terminal
The reason for my posting is not the XPM viewer. The primary reason was the data processing class, which allows you to display logos or other simple graphics in your programs.
I implemented for FINAL CUT a simple data processing class and an image viewer for X PixMap (XPM) images. It allows displaying XPM icons in the terminal. Maybe someone will find it helpful.
