Inkscii is an ASCII game framework designed to simplify the development of ASCII-based games. It provides a rendering engine that utilizes SFML (Simple and Fast Multimedia Library) for displaying ASCII characters on the screen. The framework offers functionalities for drawing characters, printing text, handling user input, and more, check it out: GitHub - jossse69/Inkscii: a ascii game framework, uses SFML!

What I built
Category: Open-Source Game Development Framework.
Hey fellow game developers and open-source enthusiasts! I’m excited to share with you my latest project, the PETSCIITile Framework. 
The PETSCIITile Framework is a tile-based game development toolkit that allows you to create awesome tile-based games, such as roguelikes and dungeon crawlers, using ASCII characters and graphics. It’s all about bringing back that nostalgic retro feel while providing the flexibility to use graphical assets for a more polished look.

The PETSCIITile Framework is licensed under the MIT License, so you can use it freely for your projects without worrying about legal restrictions.
Background
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been fascinated by games and the unique charm they hold as art. As a game developer, I wanted to build a framework that captures the essence of those retro games while providing the modern capabilities of graphical assets.
How I built it
To build the PETSCIITile Framework, I utilized the power of the SFML library for graphics and window handling. SFML is an excellent open-source multimedia library that fits perfectly with my vision for this framework.
Throughout the development process, I learned new techniques for efficient map rendering, input handling, and modular properties for each tile. I also experimented with memory streams to load fonts dynamically, allowing users to customize the font style as they desire.
Additional Resources/Info
For a detailed guide on how to use the PETSCIITile Framework, you can check out the Wiki in the GitHub repository. There, you’ll find step-by-step instructions, examples, and code snippets to get you started on your tile-based game development journey.
I’m thrilled to share this project with the open-source community and hope that it sparks your creativity in developing amazing tile-based games. Feel free to contribute, provide feedback, or create your own projects using the PETSCIITile Framework. Let’s make some nostalgic and exciting games together!
