Installation

Manual installation

1. Download the repository (click Code > Download ZIP, or clone it).
2. Place game-icons.sty, gameicons-all.pdf and gameicons-badges-all.pdf in a directory where LaTeX can find it, for example:
   • TeX Live / Linux: ~/texmf/tex/latex/game-icons/
   • MiKTeX / Windows: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\MiKTeX\tex\latex\game-icons\
   • macOS (MacTeX): ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/game-icons/
3. Refresh the filename database:
   • TeX Live: mktexlsr or texhash
   • MiKTeX: initexmf --update-fndb

Requirements

• Only the graphicx package is loaded (the key handling relies on expl3, part of the LaTeX kernel).
• A LaTeX kernel from October 2020 or later (TeX Live 2021 or later).
• Works with pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX.

Quick start

\usepackage{game-icons}

Inline \gameicons{meeple} version, and colored \textcolor{red}{\gameicons{meeple}}.

The icons are black by default and take the current color, so \textcolor, \color, etc. work as expected. The size can be set with the height key, for example \gameicons[height=2em]{meeple}. All the icon names (and their page in gameicons-all.pdf) are listed in the documentation.

A badge (59 available) can be added to an icon, and recolored independently:

\gameicons[badge=bolt]{wizard-staff}
\gameicons[badge=skull,badgepos=tl,badgecolor=red,badgescale=0.5]{anvil}

Keys: badge (name), badgepos (br by default, bl, tr, tl, or c for the center), badgescale (0.4 by default), badgecolor (needs xcolor). A badge alone: \gameiconsbadge{bolt}.
