The totally not trademark-infringing etc etc
For the life of me I can't find where I typed all this up before so here it is again
-
Download tortoisegit (https://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/wiki/Download)
-
Rightclick where you want to dump the source and do a Git clone...
-
For the URL enter https://github.com/psywombats/mgne.git
-
Cool you have read access now! Whenever you want, rclick somewhere in the directory and do a Git Pull to sync with the repo. We only have one branch so expect things to break all the time.
-
You now need to build the game. First off, install the JDK if you don't have it already http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
-
Now you need to add java to your path. This is kind of annoying: https://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml
-
All you need to do now is run the buildscript at saga/src/build_saga.bat. If that blows up, report the error, but it should work.
-
Now game.jar should magically appear in the game directory! You can run this by double-clicking it hopefully. The .exe launcher is usually just build for releases.
There's a unity port in the works. Maybe more.
