Hextris is a free and open-source game similar to Tetris, but with hexagonal tiles instead of square ones. It is available on GitHub and can be installed on OpenSUSE Latest using the following steps:
Before we can install Hextris, we need to ensure that our system has the required packages. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo zypper install git npm nodejs
This command installs the git
, npm
, and nodejs
packages, which are needed to download and run Hextris.
Once the required packages are installed, we can download Hextris from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/Hextris/hextris.git
This command downloads the Hextris repository to your current working directory.
Before we can run Hextris, we need to install its dependencies. Navigate to the Hextris directory and run the following command:
npm install
This command installs all the required dependencies for Hextris.
Once all the dependencies are installed, we can start Hextris. Run the following command:
npm start
This command starts the development server and opens Hextris in your default web browser. If the browser does not open automatically, you can navigate to http://localhost:3000
to play the game.
If you want to build Hextris for production, you can run the following command:
npm run build
This command creates a production-ready build of Hextris in the build
folder. You can then deploy this folder to a web server and play Hextris online.
And that's it! You have successfully installed Hextris on OpenSUSE Latest. Enjoy the game!
