RoguelikeDev Does The Complete Roguelike Tutorial - Week 1
I'll be doing the tutorial in python3 again so I don't get bogged down by language details, but I also considered trying out Go+gruid.

Sharing Saturday #454
I started out using the Symmetric Shadow Casting algorithm provided by the RL lib I am using (https://github.com/anaseto/gruid) and soon managed to get something on the screen by using the HSV color space (https://imgur.com/kfXldLa).

Base game library is gruid , which is a game library build around grids which is absolutely perfect for rougelikes. I am also pretty into the ECS way of building games, coming from rust I have tried SPECs, Legion, and even Bevy (although bevy is a full fledge game library build around ECS).

Trystans AsciiPanel in Go
You can try gruid. It should now be ready for use, as harmonist as been completely ported (not released a stable version yet, but the development version is playable. The library supports the terminal, SDL and the browser. I would gladly appreciate feedback on other using the library.

Roguelike in Go Tutorial
Have you considered using gruid? Even if you don't use the UI stuff (though it has roguelike-friendly features, such as replay), you could still use the paths and rl packages, that offer several pathfinding algorithms (including A* and its optimisation for grid-based games JPS), two field of view algoritms (including the new symmetric shadow casting, recently added into libtcod too), parametrable cellular automata map generation, vault manipulation and an event queue (to schedule effects). I would gladly welcome feedback using the library.

Making Games in Go for Absolute Beginners
I love Go, yet I've never thought of it as a language with usable game engines. I'm extremely happy to find I was very wrong about that!
I'm woefully behind the curve on compiling to WASM, though, and I've yet to experiment much with tinygo so I have no idea how far I would get in creating a game people could enjoy in a browser without having to download a big bundle of assets. It's reassuring to see WASM mentioned explicitly as a compilation target [1] by Ebitengine though.

Ho did/do you remove cgo?

Is there a love2d for c++?
What about learning Go with Ebiten? Or Rust with Bevy?

What would be the closest thing to Unity/Unreal C#/C++ for Go to create games/animations/visual work?
Actually, there is a game engine in Go. Ebiten(gine) is actually really popular and has already been used for a few games in production

Mac + opengl
I noticed a similar issue when I got my MBP with the framebuffer not matching the window size and this has to do with the DPI settings. This GitHub link helped me understand the issue better and I hope it can be of assistance to you https://github.com/hajimehoshi/ebiten/pull/1811

crten - a small tool to view your pixel art with a CRT screen effect
This program also demonstrates how great Ebitengine is and how you can port GLSL shaders to it almost 1 to 1.

Hey guys, first post here. I'm working on a roguelike written in Go using ebitengine. It's very early on, I don't wanna show too much in its current state, and of course everything is currently in flux, but I've made some progress and a few decisions.
What are some alternatives?
dear-imgui-unity - Unity package for Dear ImGui
Pixel - A hand-crafted 2D game library in Go
ECS - A templated, single-file header only Entity Component implementation.
raylib-go - Go bindings for raylib, a simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming.
rust-rl - a roguelike in rust using rltk/bracket-lib
go-sdl2 - SDL2 binding for Go
bracket-lib - The Roguelike Toolkit (RLTK), implemented for Rust.
engo - Engo is an open-source 2D game engine written in Go.
Axes-Armour-Ale - A fantasy, ASCII dungeon crawler for Windows, Linux & OSX
resolv - A Simple 2D Golang collision detection and resolution library for games
doryen-rs - ascii roguelike library in rust with native and wasm support
Oak - A pure Go game engine
