Compiling

The game is expected to build on at least Linux and Windows; with the following commands:

cmake -G Ninja -B build
ninja -C build

This will attempt to install most dependencies via vcpkg and build the project with recommended optimizations. You can customize this behavior via CMake options.

Dictionary

Before playing you will need a komankondi dictionary. This is nothing more than a database of words and their definition. The easiest way to get one is to run the komankondi-dictgen tool. It takes a language as argument and will extract the data from the wiktionary. Currently only English and French are supported.
