zzt2png and Worlds of ZZT

Post by Dr. Dos »

Firstly, I made a Python script to render boards from ZZT files. https://github.com/DrDos0016/zzt2png

Secondly I hooked a bot up to it which downloads a random game off of z2, and then takes a screenshot of a random board. It makes a new post on twitter/tumblr every 3 hours and so far has done a good job of it.

Apologies for the old post you may have just read.

Should filter out any board title with STK in the name. Otherwise it's great!

I have enjoyed those posts on Tumblr very much. I get a kick out of the toolkit posts though.
