A downloadable game for Windows

hShip is a small ships game made from simple ASCII characters, for Windows devices.

It is worth mentioning that this page contains the rShip project, which is nothing more than an improved version and rewritten from scratch of the original project (a.k.a a remake).

Of course, the source code of the original project and its binaries are available below so that a comparison can be made between the two, but I must warn you that the original version is only in Spanish.

Also, this game is (like most of my titles) open source, so you can find more detailed documentation as well as download the old game binaries on GitHub.

This is, however, a small project that I carried out quite some time ago, so don't expect high quality as most of the code has remained the same (except for the language change from being written in C /C++ to being in Rust).

I hope you enjoy it and if so, please leave a positive review and share it, it would help me a lot.

Install instructions

Install instructions

Get the already compiled binary

  1. Click on the hShip.Win64.zip file (or hShip.Win32.zip, if your operating system is 32-bit) and then unzip it.
  2. Then execute the file with extension .exe contained in the newly extracted folder (hShip.exe).
  3. (Optional) Move the newly extracted directory to a safe location (such as C:\) and add the folder to your PATH variable.

Build the project from source code

  1. Click on the hShip.Source.zip file and then unzip it, or clone the repository via git (run git clone https://github.com/h3nry-d1az/rShip.git in CMD or PowerShell).
  2. Then compile it using cargo (if you don't have Rust installed go here) using the command cargo build --release if you want to build just the binary or run cargo install --path . to install it.

Easiest method (requires Rust installed)

1. Just run the command cargo install --git https://github.com/h3nry-d1az/rShip.git and wait for it to finish (Warning: hShip will be installed in this case under the name rShip).
