Relive the great adventure… this time in the terminal realm!
- Progress Quest site: http://progressquest.com/
- Online version: http://progressquest.com/play/
- Original version: https://bitbucket.org/grumdrig/pq
## Features
- Faithful port of the game logic
- Saves (with backups) to `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pqcli/save.dat`
- Terminal interface that comes in 2 flavors:
- Rich and colorful (`--curses`, default)
- Minimal, suitable for raw grind (`--basic`)
- Ideal to run on your server
## How it looks like

## How to install
If you have Python 3.7, just run `pip install --user pqcli` and you're good to go!
Then type `pqcli` to run the game.
In case if you want to use the git version, the process is just a bit more complex:
```console
$ git clone https://github.com/rr-/pq-cli.git
$ cd pq-cli
$ pip install --user .
```
## Contributing
```sh
# Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/rr-/pqcli.git
cd pqcli
# Install to a local venv:
poetry install
# Install pre-commit hooks:
poetry run pre-commit install
# Enter the venv:
poetry shell
```
This project uses [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) for packaging.
Install instructions are available at [poetry#installation](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation).
## Troubleshooting
### `_curses.error: init_pair() returned ERR`
If running on Linux and you get the error `_curses.error: init_pair() returned ERR`,
try making sure that your `$TERM` variable is set to a value which supports
256 colors, such as via the following:
TERM=xterm-256color pqcli
