Building

To run the pre-compiled version on Arch Linux, you need some basic libs:

pacman -S glibc libcap gcc-libs alsa-lib systemd-libs

To build the game on Arch Linux yourself, you need these, although you can replace rust with rustup:

pacman -S rust libx11 pkgconf alsa-lib

Then run the following commands, replacing [URL] with the clone URL of the git repository:

git clone [URL]
cd outfly
cargo run --release

NOTE: Audio is muted by default when run through cargo run, unless you add --release

Building for Windows on Linux

rustup target add x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
pacman -S mingw-w64-toolchain  # on ArchLinux. other distros have their equivalent package
cargo build --target=x86_64-pc-windows-gnu --release
