+# Frillrun
+
+My entry for the 2024 WeightGaming Gain Jam. Action game where you collect stuff while random events occur.
+
+## Build
+
+### Dependencies
+
+	- SDL2
+	- SDL_image
+	- SDL_mixer
+	- SDL_ttf
+    - GLEW
+
+### Linux
+
+This repository uses CMake to compile, so:
+
+`mkdir build`
+
+`cd build`
+
+`cmake ..`
+
+`make`
+
+### Windows
+
+I used MinGW for the Windows build, so basically the same as Linux but you'll need to use MSYS, MinGW, etc. to compile it.
