HyperAir

Welcome to HyperAir, Pilot! Navigate four amazingly controlled Bombardier (more planes coming soon!) jets through various weather (and space for some reason, i swear i didn't implement that on purpose, it was a "typo", my hand "slipped") for an endless amount of time.
impressive, huh?

This file covers some useful stuff. Here are the contents:
Installing (.zip file)
Controls
and lastly, contributing

If you downloaded the .zip file, use this:

Instructions!

  1. Install Python 3 if you haven't already. (any version of python3 is alright)
  2. Installing the game

    Short Explanation - if you've done this kind of thing before

    • Head to releases, install the latest release, and unpack/extract it.

      Long Explanation - if you're new to this

    • Go to the releases page (https://github.com/HyperSourceGithub/hyperair/releases) and download the latest version as a .zip file (Source Code (zip)).
    • Open the .zip file, and extract all the files. This is done automatically on Mac, and can be done on Windows by clicking "extract all" in the top bar. If you need help, I've done you a favor and searched it for you: Mac | Windows
  3. Run the game

    Short Explanation

    • Find and run main.py as you would a normal python program.

      Long Explanation

    • Find this new folder created (not the .zip) and locate the file main.py.
    • Get the file path:
      • Mac: Right-click the file, hold down option (or alt if your keyboard doesn't have it) and click "Copy "main.py" as pathname" or something similar.
      • Windows: Right-click the file and click "Copy as path".
    • Run the file by opening your terminal (Mac) or command prompt/PowerShell (Windows) and typing python3 <paste the path of the file by using ctrl-v or shift-ctrl-v>.
    • Or alternatively, just open it in an IDE such as PyCharm or Visual Studio Code and run it as normal.
  4. Play!

Controls

w: changes weather
l: levels plane
up/down arrow keys: change speed
left/right arrow keys: change pitch
p: changes plane
(psst... go up, like really up. in the game. like over 30k altitude. something cool happens.)
