Options for displaying a buffer for a roguelike?
Author
Hello,
I want to make a roguelike under windows but I dont want to be limited to the 80x25 dos screen or whatever size it is. I was wondering if anyone had some nice ideas about how to display a buffer with the symbols of a roguelike which are just ascii symbols. Im not great with windows functions, coming from a Linux environment. The buffer can be any size. Thanks for any help or suggestions.
Check out this thread - it covers a lot of options and alternatives for doing "ASCII-style" graphics in Windows.
After checking with the thread, I find no mention of PDCurses, which is a public domain portable version of the UNIX curses library, and which I strongly advise.
Player_0, you can use Allegro library.
With PDCurses you can encounter problems with colors and cursor under Windows...
