r/RoguelikeDev Does The Complete Roguelike Tutorial

At r/roguelikedev we're doing a dev-along following The Complete Roguelike Tutorial

Introduction

This repository is me working my way through the Python+TCOD roguelike tutorial found here by using Lua instead of Python. Since functional lua bindings for TCOD are not available at this time I will be using Bearlibterminal instead of TCOD for rendering and rotLove instead of TCOD for helper functions.

To view the code at the end of a particular part of the tutorial look for the commits with "Part XX - Finished" messages.

Running

• You will need to put the BearLibTerminal library in the root directory. For windows that would be BearLibTerminal.dll, BearLibTerminal.so for linux and BearLibTerminal.dylib for MacOS.

• Obtain a copy of the rotlove library and put it in the lib folder.

• Start project by running >lua main.lua
