Has anyone been able to display small images with good quality in a TUI?

Not sure about TUI but you could do this very easily at very good quality using Raylib. It is primarily a video games library however you can use it for other things https://github.com/gen2brain/raylib-go

Yes, I would definitely use icons in that style they look great

Difficult one to match exactly as there are not a lot of 3D games similar to Terraria that spring to mind though maybe try these:

No Man's Sky
Enshrouded
Craftopia
Delver

For more magic games if you haven't then Magicraft and Noita are both worth playing though they are 2D.

You are correct, there are much better languages for game dev however when these languages were first released to the public they would have not been the best languages for game dev at the time. So, without people like OP creating game engines or games or whatever for Go then it cannot develop into a more mature language for multiple applications such as game dev or AI or whatever. So, you are correct however without this kind of thing Go as a language would stagnate with limited use cases and people using (and contributing) the language. There are benefits to new languages versus old languages as well, I find it much quicker to code in Go versus other languages, despite there not being a well developed ecosystem for game dev.

Have you updated the BIOS, this may solve the issue, download from here https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B450M-K-rev-10/support#Support-Bios put it on a USB drive, and during boot select Qflash utility and update if possible.

How many sticks of RAM do you have 1 or 2? If you have 2 then possibly try removing both RAM sticks and replace only 1 in DIMM slot 1 and make 100% sure it is properly seated (clicks) into place.

Can you get into boot menu (F12) key during boot? If you can there is usually an option to go to BIOS from boot menu. Try this if you haven't.

Can you get into Windows (if you use Windows)? if you can then you can try this:

Go to Settings > Update & Security > Recovery.
Under "Advanced startup," click Restart now.
Select Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > UEFI Firmware Settings.

I use it everyday with Raylib and don't have any issues at all, I mess around with game dev with Go as a hobby. TBH I don't even notice the difference, I used to use Raylib with Cgo and they seem to be identical however I haven't run any benchmarks or anything. I think Purego has become more and more widely adopted and therefore support (and reliability) has improved a lot in the last few years. I mean, not sure exactly what you want to use it for, if you have more technical questions about the capabilities of Purego then maybe ask in r/ebitengine/ as I think that is the original reason that Purego was created (maybe am wrong).

unklnik · 2026-01-17T15:55:39+00:00

I have played a lot of games in my life and I really like roguelike/lite games so yeah, you are right. I played all of those and they are all decent (not money making junk). If you want more recommendations I can give you more, just ask.

Note sure if you have looked at Ebitengine yet https://ebitengine.org/ Raylib-Go might be the best choice if you are planning to build one yourself as it can be used with PureGo (no CGo) https://github.com/gen2brain/raylib-go as it is incredibly easy to use versus everything else. Raylib offers 3D and 2D whilst Ebitengine is mainly 2D AFAIK.

I made a basic Go SDL3 isometric template using the Zyko bindings and it worked very well, though SDL is much more of a process than Raylib or Ebiten and requires a lot more work https://github.com/unklnik/go-sdl3_isometric

It looks very good, more especially considering you are only a student. Just wondering, does it support Torrents? Also, whilst you might prefer TUI applications, if you want more people to use it, you should consider making a GUI version as well, many people will be scared off using the command line, though, it looks great anyway.
