Pacab - The Point and Click Adventure Builder

Pacab

Pacab is the Point and Click Adventure Builder. It's a game engine/utility/library written in Python that leverages Pygame, Pygame Menu, Pyinstaller, and others. Pacab takes as input a bunch of image files and text files describing those images, and turns it into a playable game.

How to use

Pacab has documentation for how to build a game available here. It also comes bundled with an example game (Alt+Escape) which is meant as a demo of every feature in this game engine.

How to run the example game

pipenv install to install dependencies.

Run pipenv run python -m pacab.cli.cli --help to get help on the CLI. Example commands for running the example game:

pipenv run python -m pacab.cli.cli run --debug ./example/alt-escape.toml
pipenv run python -m pacab.cli.cli build ./example/alt-escape.toml

How to start your own Pacab game
