## Quick Setup
If you merely wish to build the game from source, or make small personal changes to the code, then the project can be built with minimal setup:
- Ensure a [JDK (Java Development Kit)](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html) is installed on your computer. (Java 8 is recommended)
- Ensure a [JDK (Java Development Kit)](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/#java11) is installed on your computer. (Minimum Java 11, which is the version Android Studio uses)
- Copy the code by pressing the 'clone or download' button and then 'Download ZIP'. Unzip the downloaded zip to any directory on your computer you like.
- or optionally use version control (see full setup for details).
- Open a command prompt from the project's root folder and type `./gradlew desktop:debug` to run the game in debug mode.
