Try to make the game easier to execute... couldnt play it.

Cool game and concept!

Really liked the concept but the game could have used a little better execution. Still a very nice game.

Not able to play :P

Really nice i like it

Nice concept! The extra use of the 'S' button is well thought out, but at the start I was puzzling why the character wouldn't jump.

By the way: the final zip with LWJGL is twice the size because it contains the zip contents twice.

Couldn't get it to work. With the Bash script, it runs and I hear the music, but the game window is just solid grey.

The music's good at least! :)

On OS X 10.10.5, running the bash command fails with the following error message:

Couldn't get the .jar file to execute. Concept seemed nice though!

afenda 2016-01-03 10:22

i can't run the game. Not start :(

nihilaleph 2016-01-03 12:12

I tried to run both releases on Windows 10 with java updated and got just a gray window...

gaspard_ 2016-01-03 13:58

I'm sorry for the problems encountered while attempting to run this game. I just prefer to have something that works sometimes (current state) than never (what could have happened). The bugs I encountered while creating the .jar are so weird that I can't even begin to comprehend them.

kardfogu 2016-01-03 15:24

Sorry, but I can't make it work either, despite being an IT professional myself. That's java.

Java just doesn't work. It was awesome like ~10 years ago or more, way before Oracle got its hand on it, but that age is long gone.

I'm sorry, but please, next time avoid using java.

jomomomo 2016-01-03 20:48

Can't play it. :-(

nihilaleph 2016-01-04 23:27

@Gaspard_ I understand... that's a pity... Good work anyways! This game seems very cool! Hope to play another game from you next LD!
