Prerequisites

This project requires Python 3.6+ and Git installed on your machine. If you need to install them, click on the respective links.

Installation

To run the game locally, follow these steps (if you install this game, please give it a view and maybe a star):

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/LeoLeman555/The_Last_Survivor.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd The_Last_Survivor

3. Create a virtual environment (recommended):

   python -m venv venv

4. Activate the virtual environment:
   • On Windows:

   venv\Scripts\activate

   • On macOS/Linux:

   source venv/bin/activate

5. Install the required dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

6. Start the game:

   python ./main.py

Creating an Executable

If you'd like to create a standalone .exe file for The Last Survivor, you can use cx_Freeze. Follow these steps:

1. Verify the setup.py file: Make sure the provided setup.py file is in the root directory of the project. This file includes the necessary configuration for building the executable.

2. Run the build command: Use the following command to generate the .exe file:

   python setup.py build

This command will create a build directory containing your .exe file and other necessary files.

3. Locate the executable: After the build process is complete, navigate to the newly created build folder. Inside, you'll find the .exe file named The Last Survivor.exe.

4. Distribute the game: To share the game, package the .exe along with the files in the build folder into a compressed archive (e.g., a .zip file) for easier distribution.

Note: Make sure all assets and required files (e.g., images, sounds, data files) are included in the build folder. The setup.py script is configured to include these files, so double-check that the paths are correct.

⚠️ Warning: Creating the executable with cx_Freeze only works on Windows. If you're using another operating system (Linux or macOS), the executable cannot be generated using this method.
However, you can still run the game directly via Python as explained in the Installation section.
