Pre-requisites:
-
Uses libGDX with Gradle and Eclipse, so use the instructions at:
-
skip the "You just generated your libgdx project, now it's time to start developing its guts in Eclipse!"
-
because there is a generated project in the SlotPuzzle cloned GIT repository
-
but "Before you can import your project into Eclipse, make sure you setup your development environment!"
-
to import the SlotPuzzle-2d gradle project from the cloned git repository directory:
source/java/2d
-
To see the state of the game running, in Eclipse, navigate to:
SlotPuzzle2d-desktop/src/com.ellzone.slotpuzzle2d.desktop/DesktopLauncher.java
-
Right click on DesktopLauncher.java and select Run As -> Java Application
-
You should see the application running on your Desktop.
