Play Bad Apple!! video in the terminal as ASCII art with audio

Bad Apple!! Terminal

Essentially a Sunday project fueled by my Touhou love and Diwali holiday snacks; a terminal-based rendition of the classic Bad Apple! shadow video from the Touhou Project. This plays a video on the CLI as ASCII art with synced audio!

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/AbhinavMangalore16/badapple-terminal.git
cd badapple-terminal

2. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Run the script:

python badapple_terminal/player.py

Python Package:

You can install Bad Apple!! Terminal directly from PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/badapple-terminal/) using:

pip install badapple-terminal

After installation, you can run the CLI anywhere using:

badapple_terminal

A word of caution:

It might be that above command may not be recognized, so make sure you have Python installed (>=3.8) and your Python Scripts directory is in your PATH. For example in PowerShell, you can temporarily add this:

Temporary:

$env:Path += ";C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python313\Scripts"

However, this change is temporary and applies only to the current PowerShell session. For a permanent solution, update your system environment variables via Windows Settings, like so:

Permanently:

1. Press Win + S, search Environment Variables, open Edit the system environment variables.
2. Click Environment Variables…
3. Under User variables, select Path → Edit → New
4. Add:

   C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python313\Scripts
   

5. Then, Click OK to save. You are good to go!
