Castle Story

Here's my entrance to Ludum Dare 23. Written entirely in Java, all original art done in Acorn.
This is my High School Senior project, so here goes.

Written on a mac, and there's a graphical bug on windows that causes some graphics layers to flash in and out of existence. I can't seem to track it down.

Timelapse soon(tm)?

Any and all comments/feedback is much appreciated.

Chance of incredibad. Sorry.

I'd mark this as unplayable under Windows. Aside from the flicker, none of the UI (as seen in the screenshots) show up except for a split second when entering a screen. Couldn't play, so didn't rate.

Couldn't play it. :( I'm on windows 7 64 bit. I just got an orange dot that let me draw on the black background and "fetching images" in the bottom left corner.

Yes! I found the key, figured out how to fight, and I won!

It took a while to finally understand. Pretty cool theme-wise and it looks like you were planning on a fuller story (judging by the man in the house). If only it were a little easier to understand the game (I thought the houses were trees). I like where you hid the key: the caves were really good looking.
