Where to play
-------------
Gunkiss is in-development. Public builds for the web and Android are expected to be released soon.
The following external programs and libraries are required to compile the game.
#### SPACEBOX
The [SPACEBOX game framework][] is being developed simultaneously and should be checked out into `lib/sb` as a submodule of the project using the `--recursive` flag as shown above.
The game uses [cURL][] to communicate with the [Open Food Facts][] API. The cURL library and development headers must be installed to the system paths in order to compile the program.
See [the downloads page][] for ways to get the library and headers. It must be installed in such a way that linking can be done with `-lcurl` and headers are in the default search path.
The game uses [OpenCV][] to enable barcode reading through the camera. The library and headers by default are expected to be installed to `[HOME]/local/opencv/lib` and `[HOME]/local/opencv/headers` respectively, but those locations can be edited in the [Makefile][]
The game uses [ZBar][] to scan images for barcodes and report what the barcode is. The library and headers by default are expected to be installed to `[HOME]/local/zbar/lib` and `[HOME]/local/zbar/headers` respectively, but those locations can be edited in the [Makefile][].
Once the requirements are satisfied, run `make linux` to compile. The executable will be saved to the root folder as `gunkiss`.
#### Compiler
The project is developed using `clang`, but `gcc` can be substituted. Environment variables for `CC` and `CXX` can be used to change the default compiler.
