Playing the game

Windows

You do not need LÖVE on Windows, as it comes bundled with the program.

To get the stable release, simply download the ZIP in the latest release. All assets needed are bundled with the executable.

If you want the bleeding edge version, download this.

Extract the ZIP, open a Command Prompt at the folder you extracted Cambridge to, then run this command:

dist\windows\love.exe .

Alternatively, if you're on a 32-bit system, run this instead:

dist\win32\love.exe .

32-bit systems do not support rich presence integration.

Then, check the mod pack section at the bottom of this page.

macOS, Linux

If you haven't already, install love with your favourite package manager (Homebrew on macOS, your system's default on Linux). Make sure you're using LÖVE 11, because it won't work with earlier versions!

Clone the repository in git:

git clone https://github.com/SashLilac/cambridge

Alternatively, download the source code ZIP in the latest release.

Then, navigate to the root directory that you just cloned, and type:

love .

It should run automatically!

Installing modpacks

Simply drag your mode, ruleset, and randomizer Lua files into their respective directory, and they should appear automatically.

For more detailed instructions, install this mod pack to get a taste of the mod potential.
