Really cute game! The writing had me smiling throughout, not sure how many endings there are but I like the use of free text entry with the guard.

Feels like a reward for reading the dialogue closely.

Hey JB, thanks so much for making Playscii - I know it must've taken a huge amount of work to get it to where it is today!

I recently upgraded my Mac to macOS 11 (Big Sur) and Playscii will no longer launch for me :( running from the commandline yields;

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "PyInstaller/loader/pyiboot01_bootstrap.py", line 144, in __init__
  File "ctypes/__init__.py", line 374, in __init__
OSError: dlopen(OpenGL, 10): image not found
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

[58403] Failed to execute script playscii

Looks like there might be some clues here: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/5107, appears macOS changed how loading dylibs works slightly in Big Sur?

Would be eternally grateful if you could patch this, currently I'm using another computer just for Playscii haha

Amazing art, love the concept :)

Hey everyone!

We're working on FROGUE, a somewhat-chill frog simulation experience. Your goal is to hop around, lick bugs, jump over walls & swim through water all while protecting your precious eggs until you can find the perfect spot to lay them.

So far we've got basic systems in place for different entities that live around the pond (gnats, mosquitos, skinks, newts and snakes) and some procgen maps. 

You can check the current build out here: https://twopm.itch.io/frogue

We're using ClojureScript, pixi.js and rot.js, the source code is available but I'll move to a dedicated FROGUE repo after the jam: https://github.com/twopmstudios/fae.cljs

Hope everyone's making good progress, we're having a lot of fun  🐸

Please do! I want to play, screenshots look amazing

Thanks so much for taking an interest. We haven't formally announced the preview yet (it's happening today!) so you're getting in early!
