 Climb up as much as you can to make the highest record.
+
+##Requirements
+###Platforms
+CloonelJump is being developed on 64 bit Linux. At the moment that's the only supported platforms, but in the future it will be ported to SailfishOS and Android.
+###Dependencies
+At the moment, CloonelJump needs the following libraries to run:
+
++ libPNG
++ SDL2
++ Boost
+
+Additionally, to build it you will need cmake.
+
+##Building
+Run cmake to generate the project for your platform. For debug builds using ninja I run:
+
+    cd ~
+    mkdir cloonel_build
+    cd cloonel_build
+    cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -GNinja <path_to_the_source>
+    ninja
+
+Replace Debug with Release for a Release build, and omit the -G parameter to use the default generator on your platform, if you don't use ninja.
