# Glest
|
|
|
|
**Official Website: https://glest.io**
|
|
|
|
[Glest](https://glest.io) is a network multi-player real-time strategy game engine.
|
|
It includes several factions, each one consisting of many 3d characters. The factions are loosely
|
|
based on historical empires with added elements of fantasy, such as
|
|
mummies produced by Egyptian priests, shamans who summon
|
|
thunderbirds for air assaults, and Norsemen who can build flying
|
|
valkries and "Thors". Start the game by harvesting natural resources,
|
|
then use the cash to produce an army. Single-player mode against the
|
|
CPU is also available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Download for Windows
|
|
|
|
#### [Download Glest from here](https://codeload.github.com/glest/windows-installer/zip/master).
|
|
|
|
Additionally, if you want
|
|
to contribute with the code on Windows, [please follow these
|
|
instructions](https://github.com/Glest/glest-source/blob/master/mk/windows/README.md).
|
|
|
|
## Downloads for linux
|
|
|
|
Three distro-agnostic options are available for Glest on linux:
|
|
|
|
1. [](https://snapcraft.io/glest)
|
|
|
|
2. Download the AppImage here: https://github.com/glest/glest-source/releases . A `Release` is a stable version and `Continuous builds` are development versions.
|
|
To run, set the `.AppImage` file to executable with `chmod +x Glest.AppImage`, then just execute it.
|
|
|
|
3. Install using Flatpak: https://github.com/glest/io.glest.Glest
|
|
|
|
## Quick Build Guide for Linux
|
|
|
|
Using the build script:
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/Glest/glest-source.git glest; sudo glest/mk/linux/setup.sh
|
|
|
|
Then run the following command to start the game:
|
|
|
|
glest/mk/linux/build/glest
|
|
|
|
3. Building manually using CMake: https://github.com/glest/glest-source/blob/master/BUILD.md
|
|
|
|
For other operating systems, you must [**build and install from
|
|
source**](https://github.com/Glest/glest-source/blob/master/BUILD.md)
|
|
(Later, we'll be providing binary packages).
