Alternative #5.

Upgrade the ASCII map (map.txt) to be a little bit more eye-pleasing.

• [x] Enrich the representation with box-drawing characters

• [x] String toEmojiView(String asciiView): Use 🚗️🚋️ ⬛️⬜️🌉️ 💚️❤️💛️

• [ ] String[][] toTilesMatrix(String asciiView): Figure out a good mapping from enrichedText to assets/tiles like rpg-urban-pack

• [ ] BufferedImage toBufferedImage(String[][] tilesMatrix): Generate from the mapped tiles matrix using BufferedImage

• [ ] Wrap the bufferedImage as a basic GUI using the java.awt package

ASCII Art and Emoji are cool and all but they just add complexity with no real value.

Just focus on fixing and improving the JavaFX animation.
