The original submission had some serious performance issues, so I have made some post-jam optimisations that do not change the gameplay but drastically increase. The Windows executable shouldn't have any dependencies. You can run it on Mac or Linux using Python, as long as you have PyGame (http:\/\/www.pygame.org\/news.html) and PyTMX (http:\/\/www.pygame.org\/news.html) installed. Just run src\/main.py from the root directory.\r\n\r\nUbuntu step-by-step instructions (courtesy of frnknstn):\r\n* sudo apt-get install python2.7 python-pygame python-pip git \r\n* sudo pip install pytmx \r\n* git clone https:\/\/github.com\/FinnStokes\/cosplay-chase.git \r\n* cd cosplay-chase \r\n* python src\/main.py","title":"Cosplay Chase"}
