Dungeons of Freeport's renderer now works through SDL!

That's a goddamn satisfying thing to see. Some minor issues to work out, and there's no input system yet, but that's pretty trivial to sort out.

I'll be doing that tomorrow evening, I reckon.

@vampiress oh fun!

How are you getting the characters onto the screen? Eg: one big dynamic mesh with a quad per character, or a dynamic texture with one texel representing each character, or a software renderer to a dynamic texture, or a whole lotta sprites (IDK what interfaces SDL provides) or?

@Farbs I'm using my own engine between the game and SDL, so it's just a batched load of sprites using the same texture.

One quirk of this is that I haven't put a padding line between the rows. This means it's not 1:1 perfect with a standard terminal but... I think I prefer this look?
