This engine was used to power a maze solving robot during Advent of Code 2019:

Terminal Dungeon

A Doom-like game engine that renders to ascii and outputs to terminal!

• 'esc' to exit

• 't' to turn off textures

• 'wasdqe' or arrow-keys to move

• 'space' to jump

Depending on your terminal font, Renderer.ascii_map may need to be adjusted. If you'd like to make an ascii map more suitable to your terminal's font, check my Snippets repository for a script that grabs mean brightness of unicode characters.

Values stored in textures should range from 0-9. Values below 6 are subtractive and above 6 are additive.

This project wouldn't have been possible without the following valuable resources:
