Dependencies

• C3 compiler (c3c in PATH)
• Linux: gcc, clang, wayland-scanner, git, and dev libraries for X11/Wayland.
• MacOS: Xcode Command Line Tools
• Windows cross-compilation: mingw-w64 and MSVC SDK (via c3c fetch-sdk windows).
• Web: Emscripten.

Build and Run

Before the first build on any platform, you must prepare the C dependencies (RGFW and miniaudio):

1. Build Dependencies

Choose your target platform:

# For Linux
c3c build linux-deps --trust=full

# For macOS
c3c build macos-deps --trust=full

# For Windows (cross-compile from Linux)
c3c build windows-deps --trust=full

2. Build the Game

# Linux
c3c run linux

# macOS
c3c run macos

# Windows
c3c build windows

# Web (WASM)
c3c build web --trust=full
# This target handles dependencies and linking in one step.
# Serve the build/ directory using any local web server.

Tip

Use --trust=full when running/building to allow the project.json to execute the dependency build scripts.
