War Against Machines

A (very WIP) turn-based strategy game set in the not-so-distant future.

Written in Rust.

Building

The game can be built with:

cargo build --release

If you get an error like:

thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: "`"pkg-config" "--libs" "--cflags" "alsa"` did not exit successfully: exit code: 1

This means that you will need to install the ALSA development libraries:

sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev
