The Jar couldn't be launched. OSX 10.8.1

I get a Pixel format not accelerated error on the web version. And from the windows version I get an UnsatisfiedLinkError in the loadLibrary function.

I'll try again later on a different computer

It was a bit confusing at first, but fun after I got the hang of it!

Very fun to play despite the fact that it need many tries to undestant where is the "hit zone of the items".
I also get stuck on the gameover sequence, even if I press enter nothing happen.

Fun game, I like the retro style and all the audio effects and music. Difficulty is also from the eighties.

Great game Borkano! I loved spectrum style of graphics and sound. Big plus for minigame to proove that you are innocent. I have fun with this game, very innovative and fun for 48 hours.

@prettymuchbryce thanks for letting me know, unfortunately I don't have a Mac to test it with :-( Does the web version work for you? And you could try running this directly from Terminal: java -Djava.library.path=./native/macosx -jar game.jar

@starspell It might be a limitation of LWJGL + your graphics card or might be a bug from me, I'm not sure sorry!

@Benjamin glad you enjoyed it! Sorry, yes there is no way to restart when the game is over or you win, I'll add a note!

Pretty fun game. Absolutely loved the aesthetics, and the game feels pretty solid. No obvious bug or anything (except the restart thing). Very well done!

Not a big fan of your collision detection and controls, but otherwise really pleased by this Spectrum imitation. Good job.

I really liked this game. The collision detection could have been a little more intuitive (such as the attack direction), but overall this was really enjoyable. I liked the minigames such as pleading innocent at trial, and could see this game being expanded into a full version.

By the way, if you're looking for a better host than dropbox, you might check out the free Java hosting I offer at http://StaticVoidGames.com. We handle LWJGL automatically. Either way, nice work!
