Woo, it's online! Tutorial 1 for the #cpp libtcod #roguelike #programming tutorial series is finally up.
Please check it out if you like, and let me know what you think! It's my first time creating anything like this, so feedback of any kind is appreciated š

About this blog
Hey, I'm Nika, and this blog will contain my devlogs and commentary about my programming projects, and possible ramblings on programming in general.
I am primarily a C++ programmer for my own work, but I am skilled with C#, Java, and Python, and have dabbled with lots of other languages. I enjoy working with backend technologies, as well as optimizing code performance and size.
Current projects
libtcod tutorials: Tutorials for the roguelike game development framework libtcod in C++, with a focus on modern C++ features and good software engineering practices. Now with a tutorial website with step-by-step instructions for going through the tutorials!
OpenHomeworld: An open-source reimplementation in C++ of the the 1999 GOTY space strategy game Homeworld.
Metal Max Redux: A GBC remake of Metal Max for the NES, in the style of the Dragon Quest I+II ports.
Free City-States: A lewd city builder and management game in Godot.
SWN GM Tool: A tool to help GMs run the tabletop roleplaying game Stars Without Number. Eventual features it will include are a map system, faction and asset tracking, and ability to simulate the GM Turn, as well as decoupling it from SWN for use in other settings/campaigns.
You can find my public code on my Gitlab and Github pages.
I'm back
The recent Unity kerfuffle got me thinking about implementing a game engine again and reinvigorated me to work on the libtcod tutorials. Ended up reworking the first tutorial code to use the newer Contexts that libtcod has moved to, and even refactored my second tutorial code as well!
The actual tutorial text will hopefully come later this week sometime, though I did diagnose a weird issue with the CSS I was using on my pages so that it doesn't show a white bar on the side of the code blocks while in dark mode :D
Getting excited to be in C++ programming land working on engine stuff again!
It should not be allowed to deprecate half of a library without adding equally useful new functions. Looking at you, tcod. Iām thankful I can finally resize the windows but at what cost, at what cost!
Here is a similar effect using a cave palette with anĀ āundergroundā sense to it.

And hereās where Iām at now. Iāve done it mainly by modifying functions that generate rooms to ask a new function for the tile it should use when placing each tile. I can then use that new function to spit back either the same tile repeatedly, resulting in solid colors, or different tiles based on set probabilities. Works for now.
The best Python RPG tutorial on the planet.
By the way, I canāt even begin to blog about this game without at least giving a huge amount of thanks to Jotaf for creating this tutorial on Python development using libtcod library:Ā http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=Complete_Roguelike_Tutorial,_using_python%2Blibtcod
Iāve been working on this project for a while now but literally started with no knowledge of Python, and only simple websites as programming experience, and started using the code within that document. That source code, along with the tutorial explaining the logic behind it, has literally been teaching my Python in my spare time from experimentation and I cannot give it enough praise.Ā
I understand a lot of people are into pygame and I want to check that out perhaps later in development, but this tutorial really gets a lot of great use out of libtcod and is literally the best resource I have found for python rpg development from scratch.Ā
This is just a simple labor of love RPG, so I donāt know if anyone will read this, but I will always encourage anyone interested in creating anything similar to this project to do themselves a favor and check out this tutorial.
bumping into a wall doesnāt waste a turn anymore! the solution was a lot simpler than i what i was trying at. nice.
