It's complaining about not being able to find MSVCP110.dll. I've extracted the game to its own folder. I have Windows 7 x64.

The name is genious, gives the game context and made it surprisingly entertaining!

i used to be an developer like you, but than i took an arrow to the knee

zer0xol 2013-04-29 11:37

I dont understand why.
I compiled it as Release so it should not require it?

anyway, you will probably need this:
32 bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8328
64 bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13523

Zer0XoL: I *do* have the 64-bit runtime installed. I even re-downloaded it and performed an integrity check and still nothing... :(

Im sorry, i linked the 2010 one.

I buildt it with visual studio 2012, so Im assuming you need Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012.

(I am switching to linux asap.)

Haha, this was quite minimalistic indeed. But still, I'd have liked a life bar, a score and a way to restart the game. Also, I felt like the guards should've been a bit tougher to kill. Would've made gameplay a bit more interesting.

zer0xol 2013-04-29 12:57

The guards are not easy to kill?

zer0xol 2013-04-29 12:58

They should be impossible to kill, i mean.

After installing the file from the link in your second support comment (you should really put the link in the description) I got it running. Nice idea, definitely minimalistic (at first I also wanted to make a sort of "demake") but I agree with Gama11, those things would have made the game a little bit better :)

zer0xol 2013-04-29 13:42

Thanks for your feedback! I will put the link in the description.

Yeah as i said i dindt spend as much time as i would have, i was going to have a better HUD and a text system. Also background music but i could not export .it to .mp3 so that the game would play the file.
A "fus roh dah" text over the player when you press X.
And the ability to select race in the start.
Also a way to restart when you die.

But i did not :)

I read the title, so I had to try it lol

Cool game, love the Concept :)

pplo 2013-04-30 20:22

Try to launch it, error pops up :
... is not a valid Win32 application :(

bumpkinrich 2013-05-01 20:46

Brilliant idea and use of the theme and well put together too.

SuperlevelSebastian 2013-05-01 22:22

Sadly I can't play it, because it's no Win32-application. :(

(Win XP, 32bit here)

the-jack 2013-05-02 07:55

Full marks for humor.

pixelfan 2013-05-02 07:55

Crazy idea i love the concept :D

judasbenhur 2013-05-04 10:17

could not play because of missing MSVCP110.dll :(
