This game has been tested on and built for Windows 11 and WSL2 Ubuntu.
If your OS isn't compactible with either of theses two, you can try manually building the project.

Manual build

This project uses xmake for compiling, xmake is cross-platform and works in most OS, xmake also automatically install supported librairies.
To be able to build this project, you need to have xmake installed and have a compiler with C++20 compatibility.

Build the project

cd jminos

xmake

If you need to change the toolchain (for example using gcc):
xmake f --toolchain=gcc

Run the project

xmake run

The program will generate the polyomino files for you if you don't have them. As this is a lengthy process, debug mode limits pieces size to 10. To switch between debug and release mode:
xmake f -m debug
xmake f -m release

If for some reasons you wanna run the command line version (not updated):
xmake build text
xmake run text

Package the project

// TODO when the game is finished //
