We need a prototype for displaying / moving things #39

Open Trevoke opened 6 years ago

Trevoke commented 6 years ago

We need a prototype of "there's a character on the screen and it moves".

We may want to leverage the gosu library, though I know that would be a switch from what we currently have, so it may not be ideal:

Whether we use gosu or stick to plain terminal, we need this. This means we need a volunteer. Who's going to put in the time for this?

I will volunteer to get this underway. I vote for sticking with terminal + ncurses.

I agree with keeping the dependencies very light - the whole point is to teach after all, not to build an entire, compelling game.

Entirely reasonable :D

My original intent was just to use curses for this.

Trevoke commented 6 years ago

I think that's a great idea. Besides, knowing how to use curses leads to being able to create/manage/test some terminal-based apps, so that has tons of practical consequences :)
