esper VS Pygame

That's cool, I didn't realize you had implemented an ECS library for tcod. At first glance it seems a bit more featureful than esper. The tags and relations functionality seem particularly useful for queries. l'll consider using it for the tutorial.

If you don't mind the broken type hinting then you could go with Esper.

I've been closely looking at the Python ECS libraries Snecs and Esper. I was hoping I could use one of them to fix the Python tutorial without making the tutorial about writing an entity-component engine. What I actually want would be a Python ECS library with NumPy for static types, but a library I did find for that didn't have a good enough license for a tutorial. For now I'll be okay with dynamic types just so I can fix my current problems, and I'll think about performance some other time.

I've been attempting to do this using an entity-component-system (specifically the Esper system). The difference being that I'm trying to explain my processors in separate documents first.

Not much to see/to do yet. I just wanted to try Esper and LDtk.

pygame never used it, but its popular python library, heard good things about it. i suggest if you are not trying to make resource intensive game, and you want to learn python which is a really valuable skill.

Pygame is a framework of python modules and libraries for writing games. It is modular and great for learning the basics of the Python programming language.

There two parts to sprite class. One is in cython and the there one in python. Would have to go through code to see which one their still using. Every test I have run. Sprite and Group will handle more images. With out frame rate dropping below 60.

To code a game, at first you should be familiar with some basic CS concepts and DSA. All of the languages above have modules and frameworks for games. I would suggest considering to start learning Python with DSA and then pygame (A Python library for creating games).

Pygame uses SDL_ttf under the hood to work with fonts. If you’re just wanting to load your own font you can just use pygame.font.Font() and point it to a ttf file. If you’re wanting to mess with the font object or do something else with the raw font data, you might want to check out https://github.com/pygame/pygame/blob/main/src_c/font.c and https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL_ttf/blob/main/SDL_ttf.c to get an idea of what pygame and SDL are doing under the surface.
