The game has been written in Perl/SDL and developed on a Mandriva Cooker Gnu/Linux distribution. You will need:

* Perl: the most popular scripting language out there
* SDL: the "standard" cross-platform multimedia C library
* SDL_image: an image file loading library for SDL
* SDL_mixer: a multi-channel audio mixer library for SDL
* sdlperl: glue between perl and SDL; FB2 has been validated with versions 1.20.0, 1.20.3 and 2.1.2 (since old versions are quite hard to find, you may want to get yours from http://zarb.org/~gc/t/SDL_perl-1.20.0.tar.gz)
* SDL_Pango: glue between Pango and SDL; at the time of FB2 release, latest stable was 0.1.2 and it needed an API patch (http://zarb.org/~gc/t/SDL_Pango-0.1.2-API-adds.patch)
