Changie - Replacments and Choices
A short example is the one from Changie itself that asks for an issue number and adds a link when formatting. Changie's .changie.yaml is basically the default configuration with the issue choice added.

Running a method in the top-level scope of a Go program
I tend to create a package or file for handling configs with a load or init method depending on how it is loaded ( yaml or env vars ). Here is a bigger example for my own CLI tool Changie https://github.com/miniscruff/changie/blob/main/core/config.go.

Installing Pixel library (https://github.com/faiface/pixel) without go get
All tutorials I could find are either outdated or skip over installation, and the https://github.com/faiface/pixel/wiki/Building-Pixel-on-Windows github page is not detailed at all.

Create ui button for game (faiface/pixel)
Hi! I'm making a game using faiface/pixel. It's a very cool lib, but I can't find any examples for creating a menu button (as in the screenshot). I have read all the documentation and haven't found an answer to the questions below:
- Library for game dev

What 2D Go Game Framework Do You Use, and What are Its Pros and Cons?
From what I've seen, Ebitengine seems to be the most popular choice among hobby and professional game devs, but there are other frameworks as well like oakmound/oak and faiface/pixel that continue to be maintained on Github to this day.

Could Golang ever be used in the meat-and-potatoes of video game development?
I don't see why it can't be used in video game development in fact, there are already a few games made in go like Bear's Restaurant though most of them seem to be 2D games That is also a few game engines/frameworks/library made in go like G3N, Ebiten, pixel and go-gl I have seen a few Youtube Videos where people make games in go like Gaming in Go Making an MMO I think what is Missing is gaming engines with a GUI like unity, unreal and Godot but nothing stopping someone from making one other than the massive time/money investment it takes

Wrote a Chip8 emulator to teach myself Go, it is one of the most comfortable languages I have ever used.
For learning Go, A Tour of Go, and tutorials from libraries I used (Pixel and Beep), as well as a lot of Googleing.

Any "simple" projects with particularly well-written and/or well-documented code for a beginner to look through?
Btw, for game engines/libraries in Go, feel free to check out Ebiten, or my Pixel.
-
Can I get a quick code review of my simple start to a Go based RogueLike?
I have played around with the Python TCOD tutorial before this, but the library I'm using (Pixel) is very different. I think it's more similar to PyGame.
