Hmm, restricting the controller was probably not a good idea :)
I haven't got that controller; probably the reason why the game window doesn't come up in the first place.

From a game jam perspective I have to apologize for this entry in many ways :). Also tried out Awesomium for the first time which alone adds about 20-30 MB (unpacked) to the game.
At the moment I don't know how the executable behaves when no LeapMotion software is installed (would've assumed that it opens at least), as soon as I find out I will add some comment about that.
Regarding the controls. I didn't manage to think of a good way to provide a fast enough z-axis in time. The effect and intensity of the cursor is controlled using the z position and for some passages this needs to be controlled very quickly :).
Seems that without a Leap Controller, the actual game not starting correctly is the expected behavior. Probably some unchecked call I do when initializing.
Could you post a youtube vid of your game? Would love to see what it does.

(Had to get used to Lightworks and accidentally deleted parts of the project multiple times.. also there is still some stutter which is not in the source material but quality is acceptable)
Really awesome entry, reminds me a bit of "Hardest Game Ever" which I also really enjoyed, good job! :)
