It looks like I am missing your map file when I run the jar, I get the following:


error loading map
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at Maze.Map.readFile(Map.java:65)
at Maze.Map.<init>(Map.java:31)
at Maze.Board.<init>(Board.java:53)
at Maze.Maze.<init>(Maze.java:21)
at Maze.Maze.main(Maze.java:10)

It doesn't seem to run for me, either.

kapoty 2013-08-26 17:49

A simple game :D

sinuath 2013-08-26 23:53

Ouch, i'll see what i can do! Sorry!

vulpineblazeyt 2013-08-27 03:39

Its working now! Played, Liked, Shared, and Voted!

adjotur 2013-08-27 04:25

It wouldn't run for me.

mrblade 2013-08-27 04:30

Nice job! I liked your take on the theme. Maybe learn how to do repetitive keystrokes, and possibly add more levels. Keep it up!

generalgore 2013-08-27 04:36

sorry, can't get it to run.. :/

sinuath 2013-08-27 04:38

Thanks!

Adjotur did you get any warnings or error messages? maybe it's something i can fix?

MrBlade, yeah if i put any more work into this i'll have to do that. I had it on keystroke "release" but it started getting on my nerves while i was debugging.

funny maze for 10 sec of run.

Works fine for me. Not too exciting but always good to see someone finish a game for the first time in a LD :) Congratulations :)

surrealix 2013-08-27 10:42

It ran for me. Congratulations on your first LD game. To polish it up you should look at capturing more than one keystroke and perhaps randomly generating a maze (it's not too hard).

It's fun, but a little short. More levels would be good.

spliter 2013-08-28 00:28

Game fails to open for me, says "Could not find the main class Maze.maze"

supersammy7000 2013-08-28 00:42

a really good maze game

brejlounek 2013-08-29 22:28

Very easy but good

ninja 2013-08-29 22:32

Cool, good job on finishing!

jupiter_hadley 2013-09-02 15:55

Simple little game, a restart button if you died would have been nice. Its a shame time ran out, and sadly this game would not record for my LD27 compilation series... sorry

tegu 2013-09-02 16:17

Actually a quite nice idea and the maze is cool. Absolutely needs more levels as currently it's challenging only the first time when you haven't yet found out the route. The next time you'll know exactly where to go and it kills fun. :/ Maybe even some kind of generator (implementing one might be hard though, dunno)?

necmelt2006 2013-09-05 14:50

That fun, nice game (i like the fatality :p), more levels are needed and don't forget the score ;)

goerp 2013-09-11 09:36

Haha, fun game. Nice game mechanic. Reminds of making games in Excel and using SelectionChange as a trigger.

Congratulations on completing your first Ludum Dare !(and maybe even first game?) A superb effort. As per your post mortem, things get easier the more you make games and get familiar with the various libraries you use.

Hope you can participate again LD #28 and with an even better game!
