Usage

Simply use the template button on GitHub to create a new repository from this template. Then, replace all instances of the word foxtrot with the name of your game. Change the game version as well as the author information in the following files:

• Cargo.toml
• build/windows/installer/Package.wxs
• build/macos/src/Game.app/Contents/Resources/Info.plist

Running the game

Native:

cargo run

Wasm:

trunk serve --no-default-features --features wasm_dev

Building in general requires setting up LLD or ZLD as described in the Bevy book. Don't worry, it's super easy:

• Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install lld

• Arch: sudo pacman -S lld

• Windows: Ensure you have the latest cargo-binutils

  cargo install -f cargo-binutils
  rustup component add llvm-tools-preview

• MacOS: Modern LLD does not yet support MacOS, but we can use zld instead: brew install michaeleisel/zld/zld

Building WASM requires trunk:

cargo install --locked trunk

Updating assets

You should keep the credits directory up to date. The release workflow automatically includes the directory in every build.

Updating the icons

1. Replace build/windows/icon.ico (used for windows executable and as favicon for the web-builds)
2. Replace build/macos/icon_1024x1024.png with a 1024 times 1024 pixel png icon and run create_icns.sh (make sure to run the script inside the macos directory) - Warning: sadly this seems to require a mac...
