• Compilers
  • gcc
  • mingw-w64
• Build Automation Tools

Installing Dependencies

Debian

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y build-essential mingw-w64 libgl-dev libglfw3-dev libsoil-dev libenet-dev libopenal-dev

Arch

sudo pacman -Sy glfw-x11 soil enet & yay -Sy mingw-w64-gcc

Fedora

sudo dnf install -y glfw-devel SOIL-devel openal-soft-devel enet-devel mingw32-gcc mingw64-gcc

Build Instructions

As of now, building is only possible on Linux. To do so, making sure that your current/working directory is the same as the makefile, run the following commands to compile to both Linux and Windows respectively.

make

make TARGET_OS=windows TARGET_CPU=i686

Cross compilation is not supported for different cpu architectures. If you wish to compile to arm64 or aarch64, run the following command on a system of that architecture.

make TARGET_CPU=arm64

Installation

On Linux, run the following bash script.

./install.sh <cpu_arch>

This will add the libhypergameengine.so that was compiled by the makefile to your /lib (or /lib64 if present) folder with proper privileges. It will also create the following folder /usr/include/HGE/ with all the required header files within.
