Add build instructions
I don't think this is really necessary since it doesn't differ on how to build teeworlds at all, does it? :o
Well, Teeworlds doesn't have build instructions in the readme either. You have to go to their website.
I think it would be nice to have at least a few lines telling you what to do to build it in the readme.
I only know build instructions for windows, and that involves visual studio, python, bam and some black magic. I don't mind keeping the secrets within teeworlds community for a while, but I have nothing against linking or writing instructions either.
I dislike bam, it does absolutely nothing that you cannot achieve via CMake or a primitive makefile, and there's no way to change compiler command or add options like -flto or -farch=core2 without editing main bam file. Bam is used only to compile Teeworlds, no other project uses it, and it has very little documentation.
Bam simplifies multiplatform compilation quite a bit, and since the makefiles are plain lua you can customize the build process even more... Also (just out of curiosity), what are you missing in the docs ?
So is CMake. But I don't want to edit versioned files just to add few options for my compiler, because git pull stops working until I create a commit from that change, I should be able to do that using environment variables, as all other build systems do.
Docs are missing literally that, try googling 'cmake cross compile' and you'll get a hundred links, try googling 'bam cross compile' and the only result you'll get is 'BAM there goes 30 minutes of my time and I haven't done anything productive', and it's not even about 'bam the build tool'.
