## Installation

[[Back to top]](https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter#index)

### For `Windows`

- :arrow_down: [Download the prebuilt zip file and unzip it.](https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter/releases/latest)

- Run the executable named `spaceShooter` inside the extracted file.

### `Linux/Debian` based systems

#### Option 1: Download the zipped executable file

- :arrow_down: [Download the latest zip file for linux](https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter/releases/latest)

- Unzip the file

If your download was saved on the `~/Downloads` folder

Press Ctrl + Alt + T to open the shell if you are on `GNU/Linux` based systems and type

```bash

$ unzip ~/Downloads/SpaceShooter-0.0.3.Linux.zip -d ~/Desktop

$ cd ~/Desktop

$ ## navigate to the unzipped file and change the file permissions for the executable

~/Desktop $ chmod +x spaceShooter

~/Desktop $ ./spaceShooter

```

This will unzip the file on your `Desktop`, you can replace it with the directory of your choice

**NOTE** : If it gives you an error, you probably don't have `unzip` installed in your system.

```bash

$ sudo apt-get install unzip

```

That should fix the error.

- Run the executable named `spaceShooter`

A Similar process would be followed for `OS X`

#### Option 2: Build from source

You need to have `pygame` installed for this option. 

### For `FreeBSD`

```sh

$ sudo pkg install devel/py-game

```

##### Clone the repo

```sh

$ git clone https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter.git

$ cd spaceShooter/

$ chmod +x spaceShooter.py

$ python spaceShooter.py

```

### For `Ubuntu/Debian`

```bash

$ sudo apt-get install python-pygame

```

##### Clone the repo

```bash

$ git clone https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter.git

$ cd spaceShooter/ 

$ python spaceShooter.py

```

### For `MAC OS X` 

You have to build from source to get it up and running on `OS X`. Reason?

I don't have an `OS X` system to build the executable! So I would love for a Pull request on that one.

Building from source will do the trick though

```bash

$ pip3 install hg+http://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame

```

Install Pygame specific dependencies

```bash

$ brew install sdl sdl_image sdl_ttf portmidi libogg libvorbis

$ brew install sdl_mixer --with-libvorbis

```

##### Clone the repo

```bash

$ git clone https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter.git

$ cd spaceShooter/ 

$ python spaceShooter.py

```

[[Back to top]](https://github.com/tasdikrahman/spaceShooter#index)

- [x] Add the `windows` executable file
