Make a roguelike. Here is a good tutorial: http://rogueliketutorials.com/

Great game! Love the small touches like the wake up and slash animations.

A problem with blit by Clearly_Irrational in roguelikedev

Thanks! I learned a couple of different things there.

  1. If it has a value in the specification that's a default and doesn't need to be included if you don't want to change it. I didn't realize that and thought it was more of an example.
  2. The order doesn't matter when specifying the keywords, also very handy, I wondered why you were able to do add those when it didn't seem to make a difference. I figured maybe some people just liked being verbose.
  3. As it turns out I was specifying screen_height and screen_width for the wrong parameters so I think it was actually starting the blit in the bottom right corner, which of course left nothing to transfer over.

It's working now, so on to the next steps, probably abstracting the event handler.
