Such an awesome job for a Compo!! I'll keep on having fun with it (I'll have to learn more about Pigpen cipher first, though.) Five stars!

Doesn't work under Linux, unfortunately.
However I have found what caused it... The slash is '/' on Linux instead of '\' and therefore the resources cannot be loaded correctly. (Don't ask me how I did this... I just took a look at the console and found this...)
It's great fun and pretty hard. I spent several minutes on it, and after 100+ attempts I gave up trying to finish the final stage (I fail to trigger the switches or fall down every time...)
The ground terrain & stars generating algorithm is really awesome! It will surely be useful in the future :) And the mood is good.
The generated terrain looks good and makes me think of Minecraft... But I didn't quite understand the goal of the game. I can clear all zombies by continuously clicking and pressing F... (Is it because it's unluckily not completely finished?)
And an EXE file for Windows would be nice (since Windows users don't usually work in a command prompt and type 'java -jar'). Keep on working around and hope you can make it better!
Looks cool, but it doesn't seem to be working here...
Exception in thread "main"
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: cz/dat/ld32/TheGame : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0
I'm using Java 1.7.0_55 with IcedTea 2.4.7 on Ubuntu 13.10.
Nice game. Simple, but quite difficult and challenging. I don't think I can reach the end in a short time :)
OMG This is absolutely one of the most innovative games I've ever seen this time! I'll certainly come back and play again when I feel bored ;)
I suggest that the number of elements on the startup can be reduced a little. If they're gradually shown one after another, it would be easier to start playing.
And the precision issues in JavaScript is tricky. Here it shows visitors: 11.799999999999994. What's more a saving button would be good. Maybe you can try the method in 'A Dark Room': encoding/decoding data into BASE64 format.
I'm also a fan of 'A Dark Room' (and once thought about making a similar game) and I'm possibly going to stay tuned :)
Seems funny and not a hard game (I assembled a weapon, just kept firing and continuously going right, and finally won.) Like it! And some funny sound FX will absolutely add fun to this game!
Super fun! I'd be glad to see its source code, but unfortunately it's a Jam entry ;)
I'd only like to point out that the money calculating system is sometimes incorrect (like no income after a successful level). I still gave 5/5, though.
Didn't work under Linux here... Is that because of libraries?

Well, since this has a super short story and thus isn't that innovative, the inaccurate platforms can be made a highlight...
Perhaps you can really think about this - a platformer game with inaccurate platforms display...
I thought they are tanks at first, but soon found I was wrong. The idea is interesting!
It's really a great (I think) start with cool effects. Hope this can be improved to be a cool game. It would also be nice if you can provide the source code (since the rules require it) and enable resizing the window (it can't be resized, at least under Linux (Ubuntu, GNOME) it can't).
And the amazingly small size of the JAR really surprised me at first... This will possibly attract more people to give it a try.
Not working in Firefox 39.0a2 (Ubuntu 13.10). The console says, '(...).simulateJumpKey is not a function'.
@stvr Did you try refreshing the page?
I can't run it!
It requires MSVCR120.DLL and after I put a copy of it in the directory it still doesn't work. Does it require MSVC2010 runtime and thus Windows 7+? (I'm now under Windows XP but Windows 7 is installed on my computer. I'll switch to that and try this game later.)
Huh, I made it. Will there be more levels? :)
Well, well... This is fun and an unforgettable day in the park :) It's 5 stars in several categories... Though source code is required for Compo entries.
