This page provides access to the source code repository of Solarus (the engine) and our games in their last development version.

The development version is intented to be used by developers, contributors or people interested in the source code, but the code is often instable (when it compiles!). Obviously, it also contains spoilers about what contain the game releases, so don’t look at the game data files too deeply if you are more a player than a developer ;)

The source code now is managed with git and the main repository is hosted by github. The repository contains the engine source code, the data files of our games Zelda Mystery of Solarus DX and Zelda Mystery of Solarus XD, and the source code of the quest editor.

  • You can create a local copy of the repository on your machine with the following git command:
git clone git://github.com/christopho/solarus.git

To compile and install the engine and the games from the source code, please read the compilation instructions or the install.txt file from the repository. The Doxygen online documentation is also available.
