Playing a downloaded level

Every level page has a Preview that plays the level's script in your browser, and a Download button that gives a .zip with the level file and its pictures.

In the game

A level browser inside Radiant Shmup is on its way. Until it ships, the desktop build of the game can open a downloaded level: unzip it, then start the game with the level file's path in SHMUP_COMMUNITY_LEVEL.

Windows (PowerShell):

$env:SHMUP_COMMUNITY_LEVEL = "C:\Levels\frozen_outpost\frozen_outpost.md"
.\shmup.exe

macOS or Linux:

SHMUP_COMMUNITY_LEVEL=~/Levels/frozen_outpost/frozen_outpost.md ./shmup

The pictures must stay next to the .md file, as they are in the zip.

In the editor

Open in the editor on a level's page loads it into the editor, so you can see how it is made. If its licence allows it you can remix it, crediting the author as the licence asks.
