How do I make a ASCII roguelike in C2?

I want to know how to make a game with ASCII graphics (a text-based game, like dwarf fortress, not like that game only like his graphics.), like with the text object but with a moving character, objects enemies...

I think it'd be a good idea to animate everything as sprites in an ASCII style instead of using text objects. You'll save a lot of time and technical work.

And put them like in a grid?

I haven't played dwarf fortress so I don't know the exact effect you're looking for but you can definitely make things move in a grid-like pattern.

Ok, thank you!
