Third party dependencies are registered using git submodules, so you will need to either clone with the --recursive
flag, or run git submodule update --init
after cloning.
The build.cmd
batch file will attempt to build Very Sleepy and its dependencies.
Alternatively, you can build Dr. MinGW using the thirdparty/drmingw_build_mingw.cmd
batch file, then use the Visual Studio solution file (sleepy.sln
) to build everything else.
If you'd like to contribute a patch, please open a pull request. I'll try to review and merge it as soon as my time will allow.
Bug reports and feature requests are welcome as well -- please file them as GitHub issues.
