Port of [http://www.wolfire.com/lugaru Lugaru HD] to the Nintendo Switch. | |||
Lugaru (pronounced Loo-GAH-roo) is a cross-platform third-person action game developed by indie developer Wolfire Games. The game derives its name from "loup-garou", the French term for werewolf. | |||
==Installation== | |||
Extract lugaru.zip in /switch/ folder. | |||
Lugaru | Run it through hbloader or [[Homebrew Menu Loader Switch|hbmenu.nsp]]. Old Album method is not recommended (may cause crashes). | ||
==User guide== | |||
===Story=== | |||
The story takes place on the island of Lugaru, where the main character, Turner, is an anthropomorphic rebel bunny rabbit with impressive combat skills. | |||
In his quest to find those responsible for slaughtering his village, he uncovers a far-reaching conspiracy involving the corrupt leaders of the rabbit republic and the starving wolves from a nearby den. | |||
Turner takes it upon himself to fight against their plot and save his fellow rabbits from slavery. | |||
===Gameplay=== | |||
Lugaru showcases a distinctive combat system as its primary feature, departing from complex button combinations commonly found in other games. Instead, Lugaru's combat moves are intuitive and context-sensitive. For instance, if an opponent executes a roundhouse kick towards Turner's head, you can crouch and swiftly rise to grab the assailant's leg, counterattacking with a powerful kick. Similarly, when attempting a punch that gets countered with a throw, you can crouch to seamlessly roll out of the throw without pain. This combat system imbues fights with heightened intensity and realism, distinguishing Lugaru from its counterparts. | |||
However, if you prefer a stealthier approach, Lugaru provides viable options, albeit with strategic considerations. If you cut a wolf's throat, be sure to wipe the blood off your knife or another wolf might smell it. Rabbit enemies possess acute hearing, necessitating quiet movement to avoid detection, dispatching foes before they raise an alarm. | |||
Furthermore, when confronted with multiple enemies, one should not expect them to take turns mindlessly. Enemies may coordinate, sweeping your feet and delivering punishing blows while they are vulnerable. | |||
===History=== | |||
Lugaru was originally developed by David Rosen of Wolfire Games and was open sourced in 2010. It was made cross-platform with the help of Ryan C. Gordon. | |||
Various forks were made at that time, and the most interesting developments were put back together under the OSS Lugaru organization, originally on Google Code and then on Bitbucket. | |||
This new repository on GitLab is run by the same team, and aims at revitalizing the development effort to clean things up, ensuring the code base builds and runs fine on all supported platforms, and easing the packaging of Lugaru in Linux distributions. | |||
Ideally, the updated code base could also be used to update the Lugaru HD version sold by Wolfire Games once proven better than the current commercial builds. | |||

Story
The story takes place on the island of Lugaru, where the main character, Turner, is an anthropomorphic rebel bunny rabbit with impressive combat skills.
In his quest to find those responsible for slaughtering his village, he uncovers a far-reaching conspiracy involving the corrupt leaders of the rabbit republic and the starving wolves from a nearby den.
Turner takes it upon himself to fight against their plot and save his fellow rabbits from slavery.
Gameplay
Lugaru showcases a distinctive combat system as its primary feature, departing from complex button combinations commonly found in other games. Instead, Lugaru's combat moves are intuitive and context-sensitive. For instance, if an opponent executes a roundhouse kick towards Turner's head, you can crouch and swiftly rise to grab the assailant's leg, counterattacking with a powerful kick. Similarly, when attempting a punch that gets countered with a throw, you can crouch to seamlessly roll out of the throw without pain. This combat system imbues fights with heightened intensity and realism, distinguishing Lugaru from its counterparts.
However, if you prefer a stealthier approach, Lugaru provides viable options, albeit with strategic considerations. If you cut a wolf's throat, be sure to wipe the blood off your knife or another wolf might smell it. Rabbit enemies possess acute hearing, necessitating quiet movement to avoid detection, dispatching foes before they raise an alarm.
