Liked how the positions of the screen and sprites no longer restricted to being alinged with the text character grid, allowing smooth scrolling and movement.
Absolutely amazed to see how ASCII characters can be so greatly used to represent anything! GREAT work! Congratulations!! The blood spilling on the floor, bounces just like an old ZX Spectrum game by System 3 Software named Myth: History in the Making! ;)
If anyone is interested in this aesthetic you should also check out stone story rpg. That one is also in ASCII characters, but on a grid and everything.
Cool, but why would I want to pay for online only play, besides having to use steam to be able to get it? Offer a direct download. You'd sell more that way.
im on a ttechnician high school and i need to make some program to go to the colege and im thinking bout making some game in ASCII cause since i played dwarf fortress i learnt how to love those games. This game is WAY TOO INSPIRACIONAL for me and i hope i get the full version to help u
Земляк, мне очень интересно как ты реализовал такую графику, я глазам не верю. Я сам хочу в геймдев, учусь пока, и опыта никакого нет, как бы я рад был увидеть хоть кусок кода этого движка или хотя бы какой-то совет или урок о том как это вообще работает, потому что выглядит потрясно. Я горжусь русскими девами.
I like how the blood coming out of enemies spelled "blood".
I wonder if esrb would consider it blood
same!!

whats the point of it being ascii then? why couldnt it be textured?
@@whitepolpot aesthetics
I kinda like the old grid-alligned.
How was it done tho
@@justblue6922
you can just render characters into a canvas instead of a console making everything essentially free from "the grid"

Anyone else thought the thumbnail represented a space shooter? 😁
Me
Galaga.

It is really clever how for stuff that is non obvious they took advantage of ASCII art and just wrote "stone" or "wood"
i'm surprised that dirt isn't plastered everywhere in the... dirt
Reminds me of making ASCII animations back in the C64 days! 😎 Awesome!
So good ! what a great throwback to the Ascii art days reimagined in a new way.
Increadibly imaginative. Holy shit
This is so beautiful and readable. It is both cool and funny that for blood its the world blood in red and it splashes about.
this should have 1M+ views
Game: this is adventure.
Player: no its minecraft.
Beautiful! Reminds me of Dwarf Fortress.
What’s the novel it’s based on called?
Upping this comment would like to know as well
'Style of the game is based on sci-fi novel "Frango Anomaly".' says the website :)
Its called maths in the shape of a 8bit style game
1:49 ah yes, the famed Saturday Night Disco Fever jump. A classic.
This is so beautiful and inspiring.
The fire pits are so nice

There are a lot of ascii games actually.
real cool
Punch tree.
Tree falls
Gets crushed to death
*Surprised pikachu*
Minecraft destroyed my common Sense
Beautiful
Actually pretty cool! I like it!
This is art.
wow!
Me:*sees the lava doesn't flow*
Wait Thats Illegal
wait till' the trees crush you...
minecraft is far behind compared to this game
A game where you can pick up lava. It's a dream come true.
Minecraft?
what happened at the end when the timer ran out?
The tech demo ends. It's a 10 minute timed demo. You can play it multiple times, but only for 10 minutes each time.
What language was this written in? I'm asking because I'm guessing performance was never an issue...Very cool nevertheless!! Congrats!
I bet Unity. Lol 😂😂😂
The skill is palpable
Andrey Fomin! Cool to see Russian devs doing something fancy .u.
MASTER!!! i would like to one day can design my own videogame in ASCII style!!!
Cool, but why would I want to pay for online only play, besides having to use steam to be able to get it? Offer a direct download. You'd sell more that way.
Wow that's really cool!

What a graphic!!
This looks so amazing
Awsome look to the game!
ASCIICRAFT
AWESOME BRO
Is there any way to support/donate to a full version of this? Would love to see it on the Switch someday

У него на Хабре есть статьи. Почитай, давненько слежу
Я тоже сделал ASCII игру, сидит на Стиме, называется Monsterland. Я её вообще написал на Лазарус/Фри Паскале с библиотекой SDL2.
Release date?
Amazing
Not really ascii but i like it.
looks great
Perfect game 👍😝
Stone Story RPG resembles this kinda…
Remind me of 80s Ultima game
Разработчик русский? :0
Reminds me of those browser games i used to play. I don't remember the names though.
Anyone remember one?
Oh! I know one!
Candy Box is a good one.
@@good1005inhighdefinition I remembered that one! Thank you!
if you choose russian language in the beggining, wouldn't it technically be ANSI and not ASCII?
Omg, fucking genious
9gag led me here
they misspelled piastre as pi-astre,...
No. It's just a different thing.
когда в стиме?
wait till someone decides to use unicode instead...
Oh yeah, russian язык
I'm not sure I appreciate the ASCII gimmick when none of the entities are actually ASCII.
This really isn't an ASCII game, it's just a normal game where the sprites/textures are made out of letters and symbols
@@xdloco4793 Yep, exactly.
it's still ASCII, just without the 'terminal grid' limitations.
@@weakspirit_ Sure, the entities and the background individually look like ASCII, but game itself isn't actually ASCII.
@@georgeofhamilton its made out of ASCII chars, no? at least the game only uses ASCII to display everything?
Wow, the guy just tosses away the thing you paid for. How rude!
thats really sweet looking but thats not ascii

Блин прикольно выглядит мне нравится!!!
