I’m making digital adaptions of some of my favorite board games, so I can play single player on the laptop against AI players.

Menu

I have spent a considerable amount of time in building my own UI elements for buttons, textboxes, and grids. I was making progress, but it was a wearisome task. After some time, I decided to try out an existing framework.

Ebiten UI by blizzy78 has been quite enjoyable to work with and the examples are good. I haven’t added too much yet, but the following gif shows textboxes, a grid for element layout, tooltips, buttons, and a bit more. I expect that the menu and UI roadblock is past.
