• XAMPP (or any WAMP/MAMP stack)
• PHP 7.4 or higher
• MySQL / MariaDB

Setup Instructions

1. Start XAMPP: Open XAMPP Control Panel and start Apache and MySQL.
2. Move Project: Ensure the project folder is inside C:\xampp\htdocs\.
3. Configure Database:
   • Go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin
   • Create a new database named space_odyssey.
4. Access Game:
   • Open your browser to http://localhost/Kelompok09-SPOILER/Main.html.

1. MySQL is running in XAMPP.
2. The database name in db_connect.php matches your phpMyAdmin database name.
