Through the Living Wrath

It’ll be terminal based, and that text game example is good most of it is whatever we decide it to be! (Art is limited by the terminal.) the first one

@CoderDrag0n8 @Usseewa @KaladinsSenseOfHumourSpren @IcedOutPenguin Ok, here we divvy up the various things, as well as plan lore, structure, art... We’ll need a save system, an info depository (contains art and lore and flavor text, events, and combat), a map system, an inventory We’ll prolly use the following files: main.py save.py info.py map.py combat.py event.py inventory.py if we do Python, of course. That system, I’ve found, is easiest.

Hhmmm hhhmmm ill make a thread then Coder expressed interest in art

The figure—definitely not human—led you along a hall of cells. “I’m glad I was able to get you now. The others in the block were taken for trials. And execution.” They arrived at a locked door, and the alien pulled a set of lock picks from their pocket. “Keep watch.”

I’ll make a planning PM rq @Usseewa you have PMs off!

The glass, thick and dark, was forced open, and a humanoid figure stood on the other side. “Quickly!” They motioned for you to follow, then stepped on.

what Usseewa said

The wall, a sleek black, seemed to be a one way glass. However, she could hear it… vaguely. ”Please refrain from violence.” The same voice as in her cell. A loud banging was heard from outside the cell. @KaladinsSenseOfHumourSpren ”This is not the first time, and will not be the last time. We have not judged your species; rather, we have judged your society against concepts of acceptable deviation with regard to poverty and morality.”

“I am what you called STAP-L. An artificial intelligence interface initially specializing in transportation and prediction.” A commotion could be heard outside the cell. “If you wish to think of it so.”

Python should be built in on your computer, if you’ve a windows operating system or Linux operating system. there are some libraries that can do it, I’d assume.

The cell was empty, save for a small privy and a slab that served as her mattress. There didn’t even seem to be an entrance to the room. The voice replied. “Initial and only trial. Your species has been judged, and we have selected those we believe to have potential. The rest get execution, or trial.” There was no apparent source.

Patch rolled his eyes. “Either way, I’m going to find that b****** and get back.” He exited the tunnel.

“I’m ready. Let’s go.”

To draw stuff, we’d prolly import pre-drawn jpgs or smt python is slow but that doesn’t matter unless we make a really beefy game

“Yeah, or it could be… something less grim, you know?”

No but explicitly saying the expected length is better

len(list) works but you need to be readable you can't let the spagetti monster consume you!

"It let me control the bars of that cage with my mind. Even if it's not magic... it's somehting else."

ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ew why no you just made a dictionary minus all the good things about a dictionary i mean like list = [a, b, c, d, ..., z] lenoflist = 26

range(len(listvar)) isnt very readable. Better practice to have a value define that equals the length of the list that's the java gremlin that comes out every so often not the c gremlin, bc c is terrible and inevitably returns to spagetti no matter what yeah i (index) is usually the looping variable

Okay All else you need (and prolly more important if you want it to make more advanced systems) are lists and for statements explanation if you need it: Fun fact if you learn to use things like the bitwise XOR (^) correctly and lists correctly, you can write most things without writing ifs. not that you should, though

"Then let's go." Cor casts his eyes around at the others, and his hand twitched impatiently.

lol It's not too complicated (as long as you aren't getting into the saving mechanics and inventory parsing), but you would need to get familiar with input and print statements. So like Learn how to type input() and print("hey") @CoderDrag0n8 Game engines are harder to share! (over a forum) [imo]

Cool, yeah. Seems it would be easiest.

This would all be decided in planning, yk? It would prolly be easiest to use an OOL, but i rly like python. Pixel art is possible, there are a few ways to print images to the terminal.
