# Install "Ebitengine Game"

Create, debug and package 2D games in Go with Ebitengine: a pinned v2.10.5 starter with scenes, input, text, sound and scripted capture, a project scaffolder, and a read-only checker for deprecated APIs and game-loop mistakes.

## Prerequisites

- Go 1.25+ (Ebitengine v2.10.5 is fetched by go mod tidy)

### Self-check after using the skill

- 命令从 skill 目录解析路径，不从游戏目录 / Resolve script paths from the skill folder, not the game folder
- 规则放在 Update，Draw 只画，不推进游戏、不读输入边沿、不播音效 / Rules in Update; Draw only draws, never advances play, reads input edges or starts sounds
- 时间用 tick 或固定 dt，不用 ActualTPS / Time in ticks or a fixed dt, never ActualTPS
- 改完循环、输入、音频代码后跑 check_ebitengine.py / Run check_ebitengine.py after changing loop, input or audio code
- 浏览器版本要用 HTTP 打开并看控制台 / Open browser builds over HTTP and read the console
- 交付时写清楚跑过什么、没验证什么 / Hand off what was run and what is still unverified

## Verify

- `ebitengine-game/SKILL.md` exists in the skills folder above.
- Try a request like: "Start a new Ebitengine game in Go called Lantern Hop, run its rule tests and build it for the browser."
- Tell the user what you installed and where.
