libtcod bindings for Rust
§Description
libtcod a.k.a. “The Doryen Library” is a free, fast, portable and uncomplicated API for roguelike developpers providing lots of useful functions, such as:
- Text-based graphics API
- Colors
- Keyboard and mouse input
- Path finding
- Field of View
- Portability (works on Windows, Linux and OS X)
For the full set of features see the libtcod features page.
All raw bindings are available via the tcod-sys crate, however the tcod-rs library aims to
provide safe, Rust-style wrappers for most of libtcod. These wrappers are not yet complete,
however.
§Features already implemented:
- Colors
- Console
- Most of the System layer
- Field of View
- Map
- Pathfinding
- Line toolkit
- Noise
- BSP Toolkit
§Features that are not planned to be implemented:
This are features that Rust already provides a good (and in most casese more idiomatic) solution for:
- Filesystem utilities
- Containers
- Pseudorandom generators
- Compression utilities
