with Visual Studio 2015

• install Visual Studio 2015
• install GIT
• run following commands in cmd

git clone --recursive https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80

• open TIC-80\build\windows\tic\tic.sln and build
• enjoy :)

with MinGW32

follow the instructions in the tutorial https://matheuslessarodrigues.github.io/tic80-build-tutorial/ made by @matheuslessarodrigues

Linux

Debian

For Debian based systems (e.g. Ubuntu), run the following commands in your Terminal: run the following commands in the Terminal

sudo apt-get install git build-essential libgtk-3-dev libsdl2-dev lua5.3-dev zlib1g-dev
git clone --recursive https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80
cd 3rd-party/wren-0.1.0/
make static
cd ../..
make linux

MacOSX

Run the following commands from terminal:

cd ~/Documents git clone --recursive https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80 cd TIC-80 make macosx cd build/macosx make

You will be left with a nice shiny 'tic80' application in build/macosx, enjoy :)

Raspberry Pi (Retropie)

Exit to shell by press F4 and upgrade the system:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Add jessie-backports repo to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main

then run apt-get update (don't worry about GPG)

Install needed soft:
sudo apt-get install git build-essential libgtk-3-dev libsdl2-dev zlib1g-dev

Install liblua5.3-dev from jessie-backports:
sudo apt-get install -t jessie-backports liblua5.3-dev

Get fresh TIC-80 and compile

git clone --recursive https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80
cd 3rd-party/wren-0.1.0/
make static
cd ../..
make linux

If you are using a normal Raspberry Pi image (not Retropie) you may not have OpenGL drivers enabled. Run sudo raspi-config, then select 7 for "Advanced Options", followed by 6 for "GL Drivers", and enable "GL (Fake KMS) Desktop Driver". After changing this setting it needs to reboot.

run it: bin/tic
Enjoy!

Arch

Please see the AUR package, tic-80.

ALT Linux 64-bit

Install devel packages needed to compile:

apt-get install git automake libgtk+3-devel libreadline-devel

We need to compile TIC and 3rd-party libs, precompiled libs are not suitable

mkdir tic
cd tic

git clone --recursive https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80

Lets build 3rd-party libs:

cd 3rd-party

cd SDL2-2.0.7
sh autogen.sh && sh configure
make

Our lib here: ./build/.libs/libSDL2.a

cd giflib-5.1.4
sh autogen.sh && sh configure
make

Our lib here: /lib/.libs/libgif.a

cd lua-5.3.1
make linux

Our lib here: ./src/liblua.a

cd zlib-1.2.8
sh configure
make

Our lib here: ./libz.a

Copy compiled libs into /TIC-80/lib/linux directory and build TIC:

cd 3rd-party/wren-0.1.0/
make static
cd ../..
make linux

iOS / tvOS

You can find iOS/tvOS version here https://github.com/CliffsDover/TIC-80
