This is important to anyone who's interested in the game's development process in general - The compressed release files DO NOT CONTAIN everything that's used for development and a lot of it is omitted. If you want to have a full look, always download the source of that specific release. Older releases that were not uploaded to github are in the Project Archive linked at the end of this Readme
If you want to take a look at the latest version, don't download the latest release source - instead just clone or download the main branch as we've added some documentation since the latest release.
And finally, if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask me personally at my e-mail: nive.yellow@gmail.com
Please note that the information below is for Windows and Linux. You should check out FPGRARS' GitHub repository if you're on MacOS so that you can run the game in your system: https://github.com/LeoRiether/FPGRARS
Open terminal from the game directory and type in the following:
./fpgrars-windows.exe main.s
LINUX USERS SHOULD DOWNLOAD THE CODE OR CLONE THE REPOSITORY
Open terminal from the game directory and run:
./fpgrars-linux main.s
Notes: MIDI is tricky on linux, and it's suggested you configure a MIDI daemon for your system if you want to have sound. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/MIDI#Software_playback .
Selection of the MIDI port on FPGRARS is done with the flag --port x where x is the cardinal port number (0, 1, 2, 3).
Important note about versions prior to 1.1.0: They WILL crash after running for a certain amount of time due to an imperfection in the version of FPGRARS we used for those earlier versions. Replacing the old fpgrars version in the folder with the one used in 1.1.0 should absolutely fix this problem :)
Linux users will have to copy the fpgrars executable in the current source to run older versions regardless.
If you didn't update the fpgrars version, just open terminal from the game directory and type in the following:
./fpgrars-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc--unb.exe main.s
Or run the executable .bat file (may not be available) which does the above for you automatically
Make sure you have the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redist installed on your computer as FPGRARS depends on it
