# Zineth Community Edition



Zineth Community Edition is a fan-made mod for [Zineth](https://zinethgame-blog.tumblr.com),

original game, add new features, complete unfinished features, and polish the gameplay experience,

all while staying true to the games original aesthetics.

[latest release](https://github.com/yellowberryHN/ZinethCommunityEdition/releases/latest)

## Custom Maps



If you're interested in making custom maps, **please check out the [Zineth Mapping Kit](https://github.com/yellowberryHN/ZinethMappingKit)!**



## Technical Details



Since the original project files are not available, I've had to make due with what I have.



This project hinges on a few things:

- The decompiled source of all of the Unity Assemblies for the game

- Hex edited asset files

- Mud and sticks



As asset hex edits are involved, I've just included the entire game in the `dist` folder. The 

post-build tasks automatically copy the new version of the assemblies to the game folder, so

you can test your changes by building and running the game from inside the `dist`



Right now, due to the fragile nature of the build process, assembly binaries are included

with the commit history and are required to be able to build. Hoping to change that soon.



In the future, I'd like to attempt to rebuild the project as closely as possible,

as that will make things a lot easier, but that'll be a project down the road.



## Contributing



As this is a decompilation, the code is a bit of a mess,

so ideally, don't make it more of a mess!



If you would like to contribute, please check out the issues page,

see if there's anything you'd like to tackle in there! If the thing you'd like to

work on doesn't have an issue yet, add one!



## Note



This project could not have been possible without the efforts of the Arcane Kids, thank you!

This has not been officially sanctioned by them, and it almost feels out of character

to ask for permission, for some reason I just can't put my finger on.



That being said, if one of you discover this project and like it, I'd love to hear about it!
