To compile you'll need gcc, on Debian based systems you'll needlibncursesw5-dev (and maybe libncurses5-dev too) and libvlc-dev, they might be called differently on your OS, or even comes with the base package, and no separate dev package need to be installed.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/rogue-craft/rogue-craft
