I love ASCII/terminal games. The creativity involved with creating a graphical game in something that was only ever meant to display lines of text is super interesting to experience for yourself. This project far surpasses my own personal library for terminal games, well done.
With the Windows terminal stack just now merging Sixel support and good clients available on other platforms quick cross platform but graphically heavy terminal games/apps/hacks could get real interesting soon.
> There is little protections against messing up with the internal. This is on purpose, I want the kids to learn to use the API not mess up with the internals of every single class.
I don’t understand the reasoning; you’d add protections if you wanted them to learn to use the APIs. You’d remove them if you wanted them to mess with the internals of each class.

As an aside, I find it frustrating how different Python packaged want to be installed in different ways. Pip this, conda that, and now… pipx?
I worry about how all these systems will interact and conflict.
Conda is mostly used by data science people for some reason.
Arguably less useful than something like pygamelib, but still pretty fun.
Cool project!
