pip install termgame

Find it on PyPI here.

• Simple, easy-to-use API inspired by Unity.
• Physics engine powered by Pymunk
• Ability to read and render sprites from image files.
• Framerate and physics timestep control.
• Statically typed with mypy.
• User input with keyboard.

To run the examples from the source code, first "build" the package by running pip install . from the root directory of the project (where setup.py is). Then, you can run any of the examples by running

python termgame/examples/<example_name>/game.py

{
    "terminal.integrated.fontSize": 8,
    "terminal.integrated.scrollback": 78,
    "terminal.integrated.gpuAcceleration": "on" // if you have a GPU, otherwise use "auto"
}

Contributions are welcome! Please open an issue or pull request if you have any suggestions or bug reports. The main branch is used for releases, so please open pull requests against the development branch.

Before committing, please run the following commands to ensure that your code is formatted correctly and passes all tests:

You can run the following command (from a bash terminal) to auto-generate docs for the project. Make sure to pip install sphinx first.

sphinx-apidoc -o source/ ../termgame

If you want to build the docs you can run the make html command in the docs directory. Such as:

cd docs
make html
