About:
RpgCli transforms your command-line environment into a role-playing game, turning filesystem navigation into dungeon exploration. It provides a visual interface with health bars, equipment, and loot drops to gamify routine terminal tasks. The tool aims to make development more engaging by adding game-like progression and challenges to your daily workflow.
Key Features:
  • Terminal-based RPG interface with health, XP, and inventory systems
  • Filesystem operations reimagined as dungeon crawling and battles
  • Random encounters and loot drops during directory navigation
  • Equipment and character progression mechanics
Use Cases:
  • Gamifying routine command-line tasks for increased engagement
  • Making filesystem navigation more memorable and contextual
  • Adding entertainment value to development workflows
  • Teaching command-line concepts through game mechanics
Alternatives:
  • ninvaders – Classic Space Invaders game in terminal, purely entertainment without filesystem integration
  • vim-adventure – Interactive Vim learning game, focused on editor training rather than CLI gamification
