Ok first off there are a few Access violation bugs with the JVM running it on JRE 8.0, I would love to know the fix for that but I could not fix it - will update it if bug fix is found!

Controls: A,D,SPACE,E,CLICK

Use e when near a chest to open it, chest's give you a random chance weapon or health. Current weapon will be over ridden with the new one.

Goal of the game:

Evade and kill all the purple demons while trying to make it to the end gate, you'll know it when you see it!

I got the following error on Linux with OpenJDK 7.0:

A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

Problematic frame:

C [libc.so.6+0x78b83]


(I think it happened when I lost all my health.) Also, my character seems to always face left when I'm not moving, but the sword is held out to the right.

@bendmorris Yup thats the bug I was talking about, something with libgdx, it happens both when you go through the gate and when you die, also the character always facing left is how I programmed it.

Nice, simple but still fun.

The game seems to crash when you die though, not sure if that's a known issue.

When trying to launch the game, it gives me an error: "Could not find the main class: ca.cognizantgames.desktop.DesktopLauncher. Program will exit."

Lol, would be good to have a message saying you're at the end of the game when you get to the gate. Thought I had been killed by a burning ring of hot magma.

I like the feather in the players hat, and the fact that (I think) you can only attack to the right, made the battle with the first bunch of bats fun!

Played on Linux.

@manabreak hmm thats odd, everything is packed into that jar file so it should the class path should be there ^.^ try a re-download possibly?

Graphics were ok, I think if there were instructions I would have understood better.

I think the attack action should be a keyboard control.
