Installing

I highly discourage using version 0.1.7, please wait for 0.2.0!

Python 3.5.3 or higher is required

// Windows
py -m pip install -U asciin.py

// Linux/macOS
python -m pip install -U asciin.py

Quick Start

1. Instantiate a Asciinpy.Window class with the desired values.

2. Define your game loop and decorate it with the Asciinpy.Window.loop decorator that should accept one parameter of type Screen.

3. Write some fancy code with or without built-in models to render.

4. Call the Asciinpy.Window.run method!

from Asciinpy.screen import Screen, Window
from Asciinpy.values import Resolutions
from Asciinpy._2D import Square

# Define a window
window = Window(resolution=Resolutions.Basic)

@window.loop()
def game_loop(screen: Screen) -> None:
    square = Square(coordinate=(0, 0), length=8, texture="%")
    while True:
        screen.blit(square)
        screen.refresh()

if __name__ == "__main__":
   window.run()
