Getting Started

You will need the following:

• Grab the latest installer for your system:
  • Windows and macOS builds, and an AppImage for Linux can be downloaded directly from releases.
  • Linux and BSD repositories use either corsixth or corsix-th names packaged versions.
  • A Flatpak for Linux users is available on Flathub.
  • A Snap for Linux users is available on Snapcraft (support page).
  • An unofficial Anylinux AppImage is available from Pkgforge.
• We use graphics, sound and other data from the original game so one of the following is required:
  • Original game CD from eBay etc. or your dusty bookshelf :smile:
  • A download from GOG.com or EA

Head over to our getting started page for more detail.

What's missing/needs improvement?

There are some areas of the game still missing, and while we work to get them integrated any additional help from the community is always appreciated!

• Multiplayer/LAN
• AI Hospitals (and the components associated with it)
• Rats (but rat holes are present) and the bonus rat level
• Vomit waves
• Win level video/letter
• The original graphics do not have a complete set for Pregnancy, Alien DNA, and female Fractured Bones patients -- these may cause anomalies if you enable regular spawning in settings
• Some objects in the game may glitch with walls

Developers

Coders and non-coders we want you!

We are always looking for help with improving CorsixTH. The code base is made up of Lua and C++. Most of the game logic is written in Lua, we love Lua and its approachable and easy to pick up nature, so hit fork and get started! But don't worry if you don't code as we can always use your help in other areas and if you have ideas for the project please contact us or open a new issue! We could also use help updating the documentation in the wiki and keeping the issue list up to date.
You can also click here to find issues that would suit a first-time contributor to take on!
