Note

1. Suggested minimal terminal size: 176x49.
2. The terminal needs to support 24 bit color(true color), such as the iTerm2.
3. If you are a macOS user, please do not use the built-in terminal, as its forced line spacing makes the characters in the game look weird. It is recommended to use more modern terminals such as iTerm2.
4. Use the --show-save-path argument at launch game to see the save location.
5. If you are a linux user and get the following error when using cargo install:

The system library `alsa` required by crate `alsa-sys` was not found.
The file `alsa.pc` needs to be installed and the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable must contain its parent directory.
The PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable is not set.

HINT: if you have installed the library, try setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH to the directory containing `alsa.pc`.

you can try running the following command and install again:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig

Sources of music and sound effects

All audio files are in the src/global/assets directory, files from freesound are trimmed
