Allure of the Stars [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/Mikolaj/Allure.png)](http://travis-ci.org/Mikolaj/Allure) =================== This is an alpha release of Allure of the Stars, a near-future Sci-Fi [roguelike] [2] and tactical squad game. Long-term goals are high replayability and auto-balancing through procedural content generation and persistent content modification based on player behaviour. The game is written in [Haskell] [1] using the [LambdaHack] [5] roguelike game engine. Compilation and installation ---------------------------- The game is best compiled and installed via Cabal, which also takes care of all dependencies. The latest official version of the game can be downloaded automatically by Cabal from [Hackage] [4] as follows cabal install Allure For a newer version, install a matching LambdaHack library snapshot from a development branch, download the game source from [github] [3] and run 'cabal install' from the main directory. Compatibility notes ------------------- The current code was tested with GHC 7.6, but should also work with other GHC versions (see file .travis.yml for GHC 7.4 commands). If you are using the curses or vty frontends, numerical keypad may not work correctly depending on the versions of curses, terminfo and terminal emulators. Selecting heroes via number keys or SHIFT-keypad keys is disabled with curses, because CTRL-keypad for running does not work there, so the numbers produced by the keypad have to be used. With vty on xterm, CTRL-direction keys seem to work OK, but on rxvt they do not. Vi keys (ykuhlbjn) should work everywhere regardless. Gtk works fine, too.
