?

I guess it should run fine on any GNU/Linux. I could run it on Ubuntu 18.04 without problems: afbeelding

I had to install libsdl2-mixer-dev and after cloning:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Nicee!! Are you thinking on enhancements down the road?

yuv422 commented 4 years ago

I think thinking about mid-level checkpoints. Increasing the fps and smoothing the motion.

ghost commented 4 years ago

Ohh yeah, fps increase should be a must. Thanks, I will let you know if somethings happen bc I am on arm linux.

jschwartzenberg commented 4 years ago

Btw. I learned about this engine here: https://github.com/lethal-guitar/RigelEngine/issues/542

I don't know if it makes sense to combine anything. Both engines seem quite complete already and I don't know how big/small the different between the games really were in the end.

lethal-guitar commented 4 years ago

@jschwartzenberg thanks for the shout out! I don't think combining makes much sense, since the two code bases have very different architectures.

jschwartzenberg commented 4 years ago

Yeah, both are maintained too :) I just didn't see Cosmo-Engine on https://osgameclones.com/ which is where I found RigelEngine, but I submitted it this morning.

I just made a RPM package for openSUSE https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:mnhauke:games/cosmo-engine https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:mnhauke:games/cosmo-engine/cosmo-engine.spec?expand=1

openSUSE users can now use the one-click installer to install the game: https://software.opensuse.org/package/cosmo-engine?search_term=cosmo-engine
