AAHelper, Library for ASCII Games/Apps Released

Posted by michael on from the a-to-z dept.

Ravalox writes "AA Helper Library, which is a set of libraries to assist in the development of AA-Lib games/applications, has made its initial release. It currently provides a few graphics primitives and a render-to-frame function so you can get a normal image out of AA-Lib. If like me you are an ascii video fan another helpful ascii library is libcaca which is currently supported in Video Lan Media Player and Mplayer."

    Reminds me of libcaca.

    An ascii art library with colors and whatever else, sprites, primitives, etc.

    You can use it with MPlayer or your video player of choice, looks much better with colors.
