The game doesn't start. It says

"Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: me/sheetcoldgames/ld32/DesktopLauncher : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0"

Which JRE/JDK do I need to run it?

@Horsed You need the latest JRE, I used 1.8 to develop this one.

I had to download java 1.8 in order to play ^^. It is nice, but in Mac I can see the boxes you use in order to detect the collisions between skulls and the crow.
really nice artwork.
The j key for fire is a bit... weird. But probably I am not the good one to criticise you, because I have put the shift key to jump in mine. It is nice to see other java programmers here. ^^

Awesome idea! It's so cool that you can just edit everything! Awesome graphics too. Awesome job!

@amimanegra Thanks for the comment, it's nice to use Java even though it's frustrating that some users are taken back because of its internal and public problems. But we do our best
@ChuiGum Yeah, I liked this idea so now I probably won't ever need to code an editor again, just polish this one, thanks!

Awesome art style! Tight controls and solid level design. :)

Although the gameplay is not innovative, it's very competent. The chicken throwing "skill" it's a bit random, maybe you could make a little more predictable? The art style is simply fantastic, both the characters and the scenario! The music didn't play here, though (I'm using an OSX).
Overall, it looks like it'll be a great game once finished! Nice job! :D

Lazarus-omin (from Creative Sectors):
Dude, that's just hilarious! :D
It's a real shame, that it's so short. Controls are super tight, and comfy, and I really liked the retro-style, purple tinted graphics. The whole mood reminded me of a DOS-era game from my childhood. (Titus the Fox, anyone?) I had some issues though. Start-up was a lil' hard: on one of my PCs, I couldn't even get it to work, regardless of the JRE version. On movement (especially jumps) there are small, glitchy lines indicating the tiles. Oh, and I didn't have audio, so I cant rate that aspect. :/

Nevertheless, that's a cool concept. And you've even created a dev tool for it? Nice! Please make a post-jam version!
