Both Windows and Linux versions require the same dependencies:
To compile Swords Scrolls and Knuckles
on a Windows NT system, open CMake and create a Visual Studio solution for the project.
You will maybe need to set some environment variables accordingly to your dependencies home directory.
To compile Swords Scrolls and Knuckles
on Unix-like system, open a terminal and type:
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
Now, you can play the game by typing ./ssk
from the project directory! :)
