OH! I forgot to mention that this is for Windows and XNA version 4.0. If it won't load you may need the XNA redistributable from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=a88c6dec-aeae-42cd-a108-d35c013c3b97

and/or the .NET 4 redistributable:

It does not advance from the screen that says "Press any key or (A) to start.". Tried with and without a joystick. Any idea of what it could be?

Aw, XNA :( Isn't there a way to distribute XNA games without requiring people to install the framework(s)? You're going to get a lot fewer people trying your game if they have to take the extra steps of downloading and installing that stuff.

I mean, I will still come back and play and rate your game, but I'm pretty sure this install process is taking several times longer than your game will :(

excitemike 2011-05-04 16:32

well crap. Ran both of those installers and now when I try to start your game it just crashes instantly instead :(

The game runs, but when i click on a key to get past the main menu it crashes :/ (I have the latest .NET and XNA)

Seems like I don't have the technical skills to run this game. :)

It looks very nice though.

Great audio work!! The opening scene is excellent.
Also, good work on the graphics.

I liked the concept, but it didn't seem to transfer to gameplay. I ended up just inching through the level and kind of ignoring the BUDDI. And of course, it's extremely short.


(From the look of the protagonist, he might need a crowbar...)

Nice idea, it's a shame there's only two levels and not too much variety on traps.

Can't get past the 'Press A to start' screen

Cool idea ! A pity it was so short.
Torch light might be a bit too small.

Nice game - well done on graphics and sound! Pity you didn't have time to add more content...
