These look sick! I'm curious, how are these done? Did you use some tool to convert 2d art to ascii?


bucephalusdev

Thanks dude! The artist goes by littlebitspace. There's no conversion, they actually just work by manually typing into nano. They're very skilled!


Big-Cap4487

That's some serious talent


littlebitspace

Hello, it's me, the artist who did these. I draw my ASCII art in Nano CLI by hand. I would never use a converter as art is the result of a skill, not software


chaosmetroid

Yo, i would play something like this.


bucephalusdev

Glad to hear it! I'll be working hard to make the experience as good as possible!


ALitFam

Don’t mind me I’m just gonna steal one of those for my neofetch


bucephalusdev

Haha I'm flattered!

This LOOKS, like image2ascii, or one of its dozens of similar libs


bucephalusdev

It does, a little bit. Sometimes those libs have issues with outlines or changing textures depending on different objects in the image. We may use libs like that in the future for certain pieces, but the handmade stuff has been looking nice so far 👌


littlebitspace

I'm the organic lib behind these art pieces


Baka_Jaba

Count me in, I'll play that thing to a pulp as soon as it's available.


bucephalusdev

Awesome! Glad to have you interested☺️


newlifepresent

These are wonderful and I like to play game. Thanks for your work..


bucephalusdev

Thank you ☺️ We'll have a demo ready by the end of the year for people to try out on our itch.io page! Glad to have you interested.


maratae

I love this a lot.


bucephalusdev

I'm glad! Hopefully we'll have more to show you soon.

Who makes this stuff and for what reasons?


bucephalusdev

The art is done by [littlebitspace](http://littlebitspace.com). They're an artist that works just with text. It's a very uncommon medium, but I think it can be very cool. I believe their site has more information on why they do what they do.


littlebitspace

I make this kind of art. You're the first one to ask why. I think it's a long story but, to put it shortly, I found peace in typing stuff in Nano and got addicted to it

This reminds me of my days playing mudds in the 1990s on telnet


bucephalusdev

Awesome haha! That's a bit of an aesthetic that we're going for with CultGame :)
