A port to Linux (and OpenPandora / DragonBox Pyra / ODroid / PocketCHIP / GameShell / AmigaOS4 / MorphOS / Emscripten) of Hydra Castle Labyrinth (a "metroidvania" kind of game). Status: Working.

Hydra Castle Labyrinth

This version of Hydra Castle Labyrinth is based on the 3DS port (see below for original notice)

This version use SDL (either 1.2 or 2.0) and build on Linux, OpenPandora, PocketCHIP and ODROID.

You'll need SDL and SDL_mixer to build, either version 1.2 or 2.0. The SDL2 version use SDL Renderer and so is hardware accelerated. The SDL1.2 version use plain bitmap (no OpenGL or GLES needed).

On Debian and friend, to prepare and build, you can do (if you never build anything before, start with sudo apt install build-essential git): For SDL1.2

sudo apt install libsdl-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev cmake
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/hydracastlelabyrinth.git
cd hydracastlelabyrinth
cmake .
make

For SDL2.0

sudo apt install libsdl2-2.0-dev libsdl2-mixer2.0-dev cmake
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/hydracastlelabyrinth.git
cd hydracastlelabyrinth
cmake . -DUSE_SDL2=ON
make

To hear music, you can optionnaly use timidity, but it will play OGG track by default.

sudo apt install timidity

And launch the game with

./hcl

To start windowed 640x480 game. You can have fullscreen with ./hcl -f or ./hcl -d to have fullscreen at current desktop resolution.
