ecs-rogal

Hopefully this will become a roguelike game / roguelike engine in the future.

Right now it's a more of an experimental work-in-progress proof-of-concept tech-demo learning-tool thing rather than actual game.

Powered by Python 3 + python-tcod, heavily inspired by wonderful Rust Roguelike Tutorial

Main development goals

• Use ECS architecture
• Decouple core game mechanics from rendering / user input code as much as possible
• Use abstraction layer over tcod.Console so it will be easy to switch to other rendering engines (BearLibTerminal? bare curses? who knows what else!)
• Learn as much as possible about game development and design, rogulelikes mechanics, procedural generation, FOV / LOS algorithms, AI, etc
• Have fun and experiment!
• Maybe, just maybe someday turn it into playable and fun game
