Can't run, sadly, seems interesting.

Could not find the main class: graphics.Main. Program will exit.
Hum, don't have any problems on my personnal computer.
I'll try to fix that this afternoon
I've changed the jar to a zip. Should work.
Thanks for report :D
Launched "launch.bat" and... Nothing happened. It seems game needs something to work.
Hey, not working on mac. Hope you get it running soon!
same error as "blasphemous rumours entertainment studios" here
Could have been more levels, but the ones that you've got there are very nice! Could also use some more sound effects, but overall it's a great game. Loved playing it!
It works on Windows, I'm searching for the others OS... Are your Java up to date ?
Thanks phi, we didn't have time for a music, but it was our first LD :)
It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. I would have loved to see a few more levels though. I'd defiantly check out your next game if you join again
Great game! A music could have added more fun to it :)
Pretty good game, I especially liked the flavor text every time you die =P
Yeah! I won! After a lot of deaths, though.
Nice simple game with good level design. The last level was a little frustrating, but I managed to win.
The game needs Java 7 (Unsupported major.minor version 51.0). I'm on Mac OS X 10.8 and used the official Oracle Java 7 installation. On my system this java version isn't the default java, so I had to start the game with:
/Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java graphics/Main
Maybe there is another way, but this worked for me.
Thanks for the explanation ! It will probably help a lot of people.
We'll try to resolve this before next time ;)
Nice work! The game runs perfectly for me using Oracle's Java 7 on Linux. I would have preferred an applet or a runnable JAR file tho, just to skip the unnecessary extraction step.
The game was easy to understand and get into, and it was challenging. The death particle effect was a nice touch as well!
I found it a bit too unforgiving to die whenever you touch a wall. That was a bit frustrating at times.
There seemed to be some stuttering/lagging in the movement when you first press down a movement button. After holding it down for a few frames it went away tho. It wasn't really noticeable in the more complex levels tho, because you didn't really move that much at a time on them.
Level 7 is way harder than it should be. Really liked level 10 though. that was a fun challenge.
Great game! Level 5 and 7 are hard!!!
This runs well on Java 6 Linux. GLaDOS would be proud.
Great game, I really like it. It was also a good level of difficulty. The last level was a little hard at first but I beat it after a few tries.
As it is written in my favorite language (Java) there are some things I want to say. First, I really prefer one and only one file a JAR. (I saw you had some difficulties, but it not that hard to fix it). Second, I don't like games that take 100% CPU.
But nevertheless, really good game :)
Good Job!
I have the same error as 'blasphemous rumours entertainment studios'. Running Win7 64-bit with Oracle's Java 7
On Mac and could not run the game. Got this error.

nice death effect + sfx :)
Simple maze. It has potential to be a screamer :D
I want to thanks everybody who played and rated the game, this experience was awesome, we will surely do another Ludum dare in the future :)
