Compiling

You need:

SFML 2.1+ development headers and library
C++11 compliant compiler
CMake 3.11+
GLEW

Once you have the dependencies, run cmake on the source directory, if the dependencies aren’t in a standard path, you may have to specify their paths. e.g., on Linux/OS X/FreeBSD:

$ git clone https://github.com/amhndu/Fly
$ cd Fly
$ mkdir build/ && cd build/
$ cmake ..
$ make -j4

On Windows, you might find cmake-gui useful, set the build and source directories, run configure. If dependencies weren’t found, add their paths in the gui, then generate makefiles/Visual Studion solution to compile.
