Getting the game

Binary downloads

This section assumes that you need Java 8 or higher installed, which can be downloaded from the official Java website if you're using Windows, or the distro's package manager.

Linux

• Arch-based (Manjaro, Endeavour, etc.): pacman -S jre8-openjdk
• Debian-based (Ubuntu, Mint, etc.): apt -S openjdk-8-jre
• Fedora-based (Nobara, etc.): yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk

Generic

1. Go to Releases.
2. Select HerpFortress.jar.

• Some browsers like Chrome may flag the jar file as soon as it's downloaded, this isn't a virus so it's safe to allow them.

3. Run the downloaded file by (double-)clicking the jar file.
4. "Stay frosty." - Soldier.

Compiling from source

This section assumes that you need at least OpenJDK 8 installed, which can be downloaded from Adoptium website if you're using Windows or the Linux distribution that doesn't have an specific package, or the distro's package manager.

Linux

• Arch-based (Manjaro, Endeavour, etc.): pacman -S jdk8-openjdk
• Debian-based (Ubuntu, Mint, etc.): apt -S openjdk-8-jdk
• Fedora-based (Nobara, etc.): yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel

This repository has pre-made build scripts you can run on.

Run Compile.bat for Windows, or compile.sh for Linux, and wait until the prompt has appeared.

You will find an folder named bin where the compiled jar file can be found.

There's another bat/shell script (Compile.bat/compile.sh) which only compiles the code and not packs them up in jar.
