Ikemen GO Ikemen GO
Use this command to install Ikemen GO:
winget install --id=IkemenGO.IkemenGO -e Ikemen (short for Itsumademo Kanseishinai Eienni Mikansei ENgine) is a free and open-source fighting game engine designed to be compatible with M.U.G.E.N content, while also expanding on its feature set to allow for more flexible customization. The engine is notable for introducing stage zoom prior to the release of the M.U.G.E.N 1.1 beta, and for allowing netplay matches, a feature that is not supported in any official build of M.U.G.E.N. Unlike M.U.G.E.N, the engine is open source, which allows users to modify the engine outside of simple content additions, as well as the addition of new features, such as new state controllers and menus. Because of its open source nature, the engine has been split into multiple versions handled by different individuals; the original Ikemen was created by SuperSuehiro, which was later forked and extended into Ikemen Plus by K4thos, and later rewritten in the GO language as Ikemen GO by SuperSuehiro, which is currently maintained by multiple individuals.

Debugging
Download the Mugen dependencies and unpack them into the Ikemen-GO source directory. Then, use Goland or Visual Studio Code to debug.
Cross-compiling binaries with docker (Linux/Windows/MacOS)
The easiest way to compile binaries for other platforms is with Docker.
You don't need the native development environment set to be able to build binaries if you decide to use Docker.
The image downloaded has all required tools to compile Ikemen_GO for all the three platforms.
Install docker for your platform.
For MacOS, you can install using homebrew (brew cask install docker).
Open a terminal, go to Ikemen build directory folder and then run the script build_docker.sh.
Look inside the script for details on how it works.
Preparing for release
Before generating the installation bundle, first make sure that the binaries for Ikemen_GO are properly generated.
Download and install InstallBuilder.
Once finished, open the program, then open the file releaseconf.xml.
Click in Build.
For other platforms, select the target platform then click in build.
