VilTAGE #

Stands for ViliX's Text/ASCII Game Engine. It's more of a framework than a game engine.

In the future, VilTAGE should be able to provide an easy way of making Dart ASCII based games.

Creating new game #

To demonstrate how simple it is to create a new VilTAGE game (read more on wiki), here are three steps you need to make to create new game:

1. add dependency viltage: any to your project's pubspec.yaml
2. add import 'package:viltage/viltage.dart'; to the top of your main .dart file
3. add those two lines to your main() function:

VilTAGEConfig vtc = new VilTAGEConfig(querySelector("#game_canvas"));
VilTAGE mygame = new VilTAGE(vtc);

This will take a canvas element and create a blank grid of dots, which becomes a foundation for a new game.
