SuperTux Advance - Git download method (optional):

Cloning with git will allow you to get the latest STA updates by running git pull.

To clone the repository, make sure you have Git installed, and run git clone https://github.com/KelvinShadewing/supertux-advance.git.

After both resources are downloaded, make sure they are both extracted into different folders. To run STA, you need to open the tux.brx file from STA’s source code, using brux.exe (or brux on Linux) from the Brux nightly download. You can associate tux.brx with these executables to make it open with a click.

Tip!

You can also make a shortcut, which automatically starts brux.exe, by including tux.brx’s destination as a parameter. Use the following to create the shortcut, just by putting in the appropriate paths:

{path-to-brux}\brux.exe" -f {path-to-sta}/tux.brx

The path to tux.brx can be relative to the path of brux.exe (or brux).
