bracket-lib

11 1,160 8.8 Rust

The Roguelike Toolkit (RLTK), implemented for Rust.

Project mention: Minimal 2D library for games? I'm struggling a bit to settle on one to learn. | reddit.com/r/rust | 2022-12-26

Maybe bracket-lib from the amethyst authors? I‘m currently working through that book and find the library quite intuitive and simple to use. It started out as a toolkit for rouge-like games but has been getting more general. On that note, I recommend the hands-on-rust book which teaches rust concepts while building games with bracket-lib. As you have read the book, I‘m sure you would get through the first chapters quickly.
