Hello guys, and sorry for being away for so long.

I have been busy trying to develop something, and since this is my first time actually coding something, I decided to write it using python3.
I like games, and I love RPGs, so I went with a classic roguelike. I thank the guys at RogueBasin for making a python-libtcod tutorial for beginners such as myself. I tried to give it some of my charm, tweaked it a bit, then went in and tweaked a lot

Anyway, it is just a beginning, but here is Tombs of the Forgotten:
https://gitlab.com/whellerof4te/totf

EDIT: The project has been moved to GitLab.

Looks interesting, thanks for sharing.

I notice the licence is GPL but you have included the Arial font, which is incompatible with that licence: https://www.fonts.com/font/monotype/arial/licenses

Perhaps use Liberation Sans instead? It is metrically identical.

Thank you very much for feedback

I'll change the font image as soon as I can.

I added spells to the game in the latest release:
https://github.com/wheelerof4te/ToTF/re ... g/0.1.2rc2

Now, since the player has become much more powerful, it's time to buff some monsters with their own spells

Nice way to jump into programing \m/

I'm curious: what drove the choice for global functions and variables throughout the script?

I'll test it when I get internet again.

^ Yes, python is a great starter language

Probably the tutorial's style, as it's written with globals in mind. I am moving away from them as I extend the code, local functions are much more readable.
Examples are the new use_bow() and cast_firebite() functions, where I declared the variables only for that function instead of making a constant.

Thanks!
