A free-to-win rhythm game. Rhythm is just a *click* away!
The future of [osu!](https://osu.ppy.sh) and the beginning of an open era! Currently known by and released under the release codename "*lazer*". As in sharper than cutting-edge.

## Status

2023-05-30 06:28:41 +00:00
This project is under constant development, but we aim to keep things in a stable state. Users are encouraged to try it out and keep it installed alongside the stable *osu!* client. It will continue to evolve to the point of eventually replacing the existing stable client as an update.

**IMPORTANT:** Gameplay mechanics (and other features which you may have come to know and love) are in a constant state of flux. Game balance and final quality-of-life passes come at the end of development, preceded by experimentation and changes which may potentially **reduce playability or usability**. This is done in order to allow us to move forward as developers and designers more efficiently. If this offends you, please consider sticking to a [stable release](https://osu.ppy.sh/home/download) of osu!. We are not yet open to heated discussion over game mechanics and will not be using github as a forum for such discussions just yet.
2020-02-22 15:26:10 +00:00
We are accepting bug reports (please report with as much detail as possible and follow the existing issue templates). Feature requests are also welcome, but understand that our focus is on completing the game to feature parity before adding new features. A few resources are available as starting points to getting involved and understanding the project:
2016-12-23 19:55:33 +00:00
2020-02-17 09:19:41 +00:00
- Detailed release changelogs are available on the [official osu! site](https://osu.ppy.sh/home/changelog/lazer).
- You can learn more about our approach to [project management](https://github.com/ppy/osu/wiki/Project-management).

## Running osu!

If you are looking to install or test osu! without setting up a development environment, you can consume our [releases](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases). You can also generally download a version for your current device from the [osu! site](https://osu.ppy.sh/home/download). Failing that, you may use the links below to download the latest version for your operating system of choice:
2023-05-30 06:28:41 +00:00
**Latest release:**
| [Windows 8.1+ (x64)](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/latest/download/install.exe) | macOS 10.15+ ([Intel](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/latest/download/osu.app.Intel.zip), [Apple Silicon](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/latest/download/osu.app.Apple.Silicon.zip)) | [Linux (x64)](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/latest/download/osu.AppImage) | [iOS 13.4+](https://osu.ppy.sh/home/testflight) | [Android 5+](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/latest/download/sh.ppy.osulazer.apk) |

- The iOS testflight link may fill up (Apple has a hard limit of 10,000 users). We reset it occasionally when this happens. Please do not ask about this. Check back regularly for link resets or follow [peppy](https://twitter.com/ppy) on twitter for announcements of link resets.
If your platform is not listed above, there is still a chance you can manually build it by following the instructions below.

## Developing a custom ruleset
2021-04-05 07:06:31 +00:00
osu! is designed to have extensible modular gameplay modes, called "rulesets". Building one of these allows a developer to harness the power of osu! for their own game style. To get started working on a ruleset, we have some templates available [here](https://github.com/ppy/osu/tree/master/Templates).
You can see some examples of custom rulesets by visiting the [custom ruleset directory](https://github.com/ppy/osu/discussions/13096).
## Developing osu!
Please make sure you have the following prerequisites:
2022-02-14 13:35:30 +00:00
- A desktop platform with the [.NET 6.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download) installed.
2023-05-30 06:30:29 +00:00
When working with the codebase, we recommend using an IDE with intelligent code completion and syntax highlighting, such as the latest version of [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/), [JetBrains Rider](https://www.jetbrains.com/rider/) or [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/).
2019-03-02 03:24:28 +00:00
### Downloading the source code
Clone the repository:
2016-08-26 03:28:23 +00:00
2019-01-20 02:13:15 +00:00
```shell
2019-01-28 09:33:56 +00:00
git clone https://github.com/ppy/osu
cd osu
```
To update the source code to the latest commit, run the following command inside the `osu` directory:
2019-01-20 02:13:15 +00:00
```shell
2019-01-28 09:33:56 +00:00
git pull
```
2019-03-02 03:24:28 +00:00
### Building
Build configurations for the recommended IDEs (listed above) are included. You should use the provided Build/Run functionality of your IDE to get things going. When testing or building new components, it's highly encouraged you use the `VisualTests` project/configuration. More information on this is provided [below](#contributing).
- Visual Studio / Rider users should load the project via one of the platform-specific `.slnf` files, rather than the main `.sln`. This will allow access to template run configurations.
You can also build and run *osu!* from the command-line with a single command:
2019-01-20 02:13:15 +00:00
```shell
dotnet run --project osu.Desktop
```
If you are not interested in debugging *osu!*, you can add `-c Release` to gain performance. In this case, you must replace `Debug` with `Release` in any commands mentioned in this document.
If the build fails, try to restore NuGet packages with `dotnet restore`.
_Due to a historical feature gap between .NET Core and Xamarin, running `dotnet` CLI from the root directory will not work for most commands. This can be resolved by specifying a target `.csproj` or the helper project at `build/Desktop.proj`. Configurations have been provided to work around this issue for all supported IDEs mentioned above._

### Testing with resource/framework modifications
2019-01-28 09:33:56 +00:00
Sometimes it may be necessary to cross-test changes in [osu-resources](https://github.com/ppy/osu-resources) or [osu-framework](https://github.com/ppy/osu-framework). This can be quickly achieved using included commands:
Windows:
```ps
UseLocalFramework.ps1
UseLocalResources.ps1
```
macOS / Linux:
```ps
UseLocalFramework.sh
UseLocalResources.sh
```
Note that these commands assume you have the relevant project(s) checked out in adjacent directories:
```
|- osu // this repository
|- osu-framework
|- osu-resources
```
2019-01-28 09:33:56 +00:00
2019-03-02 03:24:28 +00:00
### Code analysis
Before committing your code, please run a code formatter. This can be achieved by running `dotnet format` in the command line, or using the `Format code` command in your IDE.
2019-11-25 08:40:13 +00:00
We have adopted some cross-platform, compiler integrated analyzers. They can provide warnings when you are editing, building inside IDE or from command line, as-if they are provided by the compiler itself.
JetBrains ReSharper InspectCode is also used for wider rule sets. You can run it from PowerShell with `.\InspectCode.ps1`. Alternatively, you can install ReSharper or use Rider to get inline support in your IDE of choice.
