Sharing Saturday #356

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/roguelikedev

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • stb

    stb single-file public domain libraries for C/C++

  • TrueType support in libtcod was never great. Right now it uses stb_truetype but libtcod's handling of it was poor. If you're using libtcod's TTF loading functions then you're using this.

  • python-tcod

    A high-performance Python port of libtcod. Includes the libtcodpy module for backwards compatibility with older projects.

  • The python-tcod examples now have a ttf.py example using the FreeType library. This gives better control and is also a good example of dynamically resizing the tileset to match the window size. The dynamic resizing wasn't done before and that seems to be what affects the quality the most.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • VileColossus

    An Angband-descended roguelike game; vaguely reminiscent of early Diablo, with loot-shower mechanics and a gloomy dungeon atmosphere.

  • Vile Colossus / (on itch.io) / (on github)
