Journey to the Center of Hawkthorne

This 2d platformer is based on Community's Digital Estate Planning episode. It's built using the LÖVE game engine. Please report any issues or bugs you have with the game!

Downloads ( play the game )

If you already have love installed, you can download the hawkthorne.love file and run the game from there.

Linux users: Install LÖVE. You'll need at least version 0.8.0. (Standard Ubuntu packages are too old.) After installing LÖVE, download the .love file and run it. Everyone gets to play!

Development ( contribute to the game )

All discussion and development takes place on /r/hawkthorne. If you have any contributions you'd like to submit, either open a pull request or create a post on the subreddit.

Getting your build up and running

  3. Open Terminal

  4. Make a command line alias to love

     $ alias love='/Applications/love.app/Contents/MacOS/love'
    
  5. Add the alias to ~/.bash_profile so it works the next time you reboot

     $ echo alias love='/Applications/love.app/Contents/MacOS/love' >> ~/.bash_profile
    
  6. Download and install the latest version of tmx2lua

     $ curl -OL https://github.com/downloads/kyleconroy/tmx2lua/tmx2lua.osx.tar
     $ tar -xf tmx2lua.osx.tar
     $ sudo cp tmx2lua /usr/bin/tmx2lua

  8. Build your maps ( this must be done each time you change a map )

     $ make maps
    
  9. Run the game

     $ love src
