In my LD23 compo entry, I used a piece of base code I wrote a long time ago and used for my previous MiniLD submissions<\/p>\n

The code is to provide the user a nice terminal feeling<\/p>\n

The actual screen code is in the paste and the required font image is below<\/p>\n

The code has font and box drawing functions and supports full ARGB color (with Slick2D)<\/p>\n

To use the code, init function must be called before any rendering or update. Along with that render function must be called in the render loop.<\/p>\n

To have custom screens, the developer should extend the class and override the place function to draw fonts and stuff in the good old terminal style<\/p>\n

Hope you enjoy it!<\/p>","time":"April 21st, 2012 9:23 am","title":"Slick2D Terminal Screen"}
