How to run it

Download rex.prg or rex.d64 file from the website mentioned above or from GitHub (look for assets section).

You need a Commodore 64 emulator such as Vice or, preferably, a real machine.

Run prg file with Vice:

x64 rex.prg

If you want to build T-Rex 64 from sources, go into src directory and find rex.prg file there.

How to build

All you need to build it is to have Java (JDK) version 11 or higher. Clone the repository, enter it and then run following command:

gradlew build

for Windows systems or

./gradlew build

for Unix-like systems.

For crackers

I have nothing against that you crack this title and publish your work on sites like csdb as long as you use any of officially released commits (the ones with semver tag on it: x.y.z). Anything that is published on releases except alpha and beta releases is generally a good choice.

Tools

The following tools are used to develop T-Rex 64. Some of them are needed to work with certain source files. The build system itself including Kick Assembler requires Java version 11 or newer.
