Permanent Destination

by negativezero

We decided interpret the theme in the setting: a submarine. Submarines are built to be quite minimalistic as they need to be compact yet functional. Basically the premise of the game is that you have to single handedly fix a sinking submarine, namely three components of: The fuel, the battery and the engine, even while they continue to break. There's very little gameplay(you might even say... MINIMALISTIC ;D), but what you have to do is rather hard.

Unfortunately I got a bit... distracted... and did almost no work when I should have been. The gameplay is all there, but there's no polishing and in the sub hardly feels like you're moving.

I tend to avoid content that isn't 'Web' on LD (Because I'm a terrible person, and I like not having to clear out my downloads folder after each LD), but it looked good enough and the file wasn't terribly big.

Sadly, when I downloaded it I found myself unable to run the .jar file. I opened it from the command line and it spat out :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no lwjgl in java.library.path

Does that mean I need to install something? If so, please provide links.

The creator probably needs to also export the lwjgl dependencies when creating the JAR.

Oh gosh, I can't fix it from where I am right now. You guys will have to wait a few days :(

Too bad, it looked really nice! Fav'ed for later check.

Sadly it doesn't start on my Win XP (32-bit) laptop. Shows no error message though. Will check later.

Can't play it because the Jar won't run. :(

Does not run for me either (Win 7 64 bit, latest Java I believe):

It doesn't run, I don't get an error.
Java runs in the background never showing itself.
Don't have this problem with other java games
