I guess it should run fine on any GNU/Linux. I could run it on Ubuntu 18.04 without problems:

I had to install libsdl2-mixer-dev and after cloning:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Nicee!! Are you thinking on enhancements down the road?

commented

I think thinking about mid-level checkpoints.
Increasing the fps and smoothing the motion.

commented

Ohh yeah, fps increase should be a must. Thanks, I will let you know if somethings happen bc I am on arm linux.

commented

Btw. I learned about this engine here: lethal-guitar/RigelEngine#542

I don't know if it makes sense to combine anything. Both engines seem quite complete already and I don't know how big/small the different between the games really were in the end.

commented

@jschwartzenberg thanks for the shout out! I don't think combining makes much sense, since the two code bases have very different architectures.

commented

Yeah, both are maintained too :) I just didn't see Cosmo-Engine on https://osgameclones.com/ which is where I found RigelEngine, but I submitted it this morning.
