Preparation
Download and unzip the JDK for the appropriate operation systems first! JDKs can be downloaded on https://jdk.java.net/archive/.
Then, on the terminal, run following commands:
jlink --add-modules java.base,java.desktop,java.logging,jdk.unsupported --output ~/Documents/Terrarum/out/runtime-linux-amd64 --no-header-files --no-man-pages --strip-debug --compress=2
jlink --module-path ~/Documents/openjdk/jdk-17.0.1-aarch64/jmods:mods --add-modules java.base,java.desktop,java.logging,jdk.unsupported --output ~/Documents/Terrarum/out/runtime-linux-aarch64 --no-header-files --no-man-pages --strip-debug --compress=2 jlink --module-path ~/Documents/openjdk/jdk-17.0.1-windows/jmods:mods --add-modules java.base,java.desktop,java.logging,jdk.unsupported --output ~/Documents/Terrarum/out/runtime-windows-amd64 --no-header-files --no-man-pages --strip-debug --compress=2 jlink --module-path ~/Documents/openjdk/jdk-17.0.1.jdk-aarch64/Contents/Home/jmods:mods --add-modules java.base,java.desktop,java.logging,jdk.unsupported --output ~/Documents/Terrarum/out/runtime-osx-aarch64 --no-header-files --no-man-pages --strip-debug --compress=2 jlink --module-path ~/Documents/openjdk/jdk-17.0.1.jdk-amd64/Contents/Home/jmods:mods --add-modules java.base,java.desktop,java.logging,jdk.unsupported --output ~/Documents/Terrarum/out/runtime-osx-amd64 --no-header-files --no-man-pages --strip-debug --compress=2
This process assumes that the game does NOT use the Java 9+ modules and every single required libraries are fat-jar'd (their contents extracted right into the Jar)
Packaging
Create an output directory; its contents shall be:
+assets
+runtimes
`+runtime-linux-aarch64
`+runtime-linux-amd64
`+runtime-osx-amd64
`+runtime-osx-aarch64
`+runtime-windows-amd64
`TerrarumBuild.jar
start_game_linux_aarch64.sh
start_game_linux_x86_64.sh
start_game_mac_aarch64.sh
start_game_mac_x86_64.sh
start_game_windows.bat
whereas runtime-* are runtime directories generated from the commands above, TerrarumBuild.jar is the artifact built using the TerrarumBuild.
start_game_* files are on the root directory of the project; you only need to simply copy them over.
Hide the .jar within the subdirectory; users will think this file is the main executable and will try to execute it using whatever JVM they may (or may not) have.
And yes, I'm totally aware that .sh file says x86_64 but the runtimes says amd64.
