Sorry to say this, but I also got the "Java Exception" error and I just downloaded it.

If that helps, I have Windows 7 Pro and Java 7.0.670

Can't you use the Shift button to jump ?
I experienced some case were your character could get stuck against some platforms, but I thought this was removed in this "final" version. Tell me.

Thanks for the comments.

Actually, we didn't figure a proper gameplay that would fit this game, and could be done in 72h. We prefered (rather we revised downwards our ambitions for this jam) to concentrate on the athmosphere, graphics and story, rather than make a simple (and probably buggy :p ) gameplay that might ruin the rest.

For the future, I want to redo all of this with a new engine that could give me more freedom. Emilie might try Spine to do more fluid animations.

Take this as some kind of teaser :)

@LuisDC : There should be an animation showing Yggdrasil (the tree) before entering the cave. It lasts for 30sec or so. Could you see it or did the black screen occur later ?

@kibertoad : So far, Firefox had the best results for me (didn't try Chrome though). But the game might need a quite powerful computer to run properly. It laged a lot on a celeron powered laptop (7 year old).

BTW: there won't be any audio if you use Safari or IE as they don't support the OGG format which was used in the game.

That was the default input in the software I used (i.e. Game Develop) which I found also weird.
I will change this and allow using "space" as well when I have access to the FTP. I think it's considered as a minor fix by LD rules.
