it doesn't start
@crispypin That's odd, because everyone else that's tested the game says it starts fine. Are you sure you've got the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on your PC?
@devon-l-steyn I couldn't run it either. I tried with "java -jar runnable.jar" and it gave me a message saying that it had been compiled already with a newer version of Java. To prevent this in the future, try making it an exe, or pack a redistributable version of Java along with the code.
@sixbeeps Whoops, sorry about these issues. I had actually tried to use Launch4j to convert the .jar into a .exe, but for some reason it wouldn't launch. But don't worry, I will make sure to use your advice next time; sorry for the inconvenience.
@devon-l-steyn No, you're perfectly fine. I have heard about Launch4j, but haven't really used it. Which version of Java did you use? I might be able to play it.
@sixbeeps Thanks! The JDK I used to create this game is the JDK 10. (According to my Eclipse project)
