How to Install Teikei on OpenBSD

Teikei is an open-source text-based RPG engine developed in C++. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Teikei on an OpenBSD operating system.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure your OpenBSD system is up-to-date and has Git and CMake installed. You can install them by running the following command:

$ doas pkg_add git cmake

Step 1: Clone the Repository

To clone the Teikei repository, open a terminal and run the following command:

$ git clone https://github.com/teikei/teikei.git

This will create a directory called teikei in your current directory, which contains the Teikei engine's source code.

Step 2: Build the Engine

Next, we will build the Teikei engine using CMake. Navigate to the teikei directory and create a build folder:

$ cd teikei
$ mkdir build
$ cd build

Then, run CMake to generate the build files:

$ cmake ..

Finally, build the engine using make:

$ make

Step 3: Run Teikei

The Teikei engine is now built and ready to use. To start playing with the engine, run the following command:

$ ./teikei

This will launch the engine's main menu, and you can start exploring the world of Teikei.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we learned how to install Teikei, a text-based RPG engine, on an OpenBSD operating system, from cloning the repository to building the engine and running it. Enjoy playing with Teikei!
