ArchLinux

There are three AUR packages for TriFusion:

TriFusion - The latest version of TriFusion, based on source code.

TriFusion-bin - The latest version of TriFusion. Installs a large binary package, but does not require dependencies to be installed, as all the necessary libs are bundled with the distributed binary.

TriFusion-git - The bleeding edge version directly from git. Requires dependencies to be installed, as it is also source code based.

Just use any AUR helper to handle the packages for you, or download the PKGBUILD you require and use makepkg. Also, Kudos. You are a person of taste 😃.

MacOS

If you do not have homebrew yet, you'll need to install it:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Install SDL dependencies, kivy and trifusion

brew install sdl2 sdl2_image sdl2_ttf sdl2_mixer
pip install -I Cython==0.23
USE_OSX_FRAMEWORKS=0 pip install kivy
pip install trifusion

Windows

Assuming you have installed Anaconda (which automatically installs most of the dependencies), you will need to install kivy by executing the following commands on a command line prompt:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools
python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy.deps.sdl2 kivy.deps.glew
python -m pip install kivy.deps.gstreamer --extra-index-url https://kivy.org/downloads/packages/simple/
python -m pip install kivy
python -m pip install trifusion
