@tradingbooch12 I downloaded the .jar file and it's not opening anything. I have Java V12 installed. Would you be able to upload in a different format?
You've probably gotten this enough by now, but yeah, the .exe required me to install the java runtime environment then threw an error when I tried to run
Running `java -jar loop_shooter.jar` works for me in Linux (using OpenJDK 14.0.2). Game is neat, but a bit hard. If an enemy block appears at a certain point, it can be significantly harder to destroy before it reaches the blue. Makes sense to have limited ammo as spamming shots would be too OP. Good work!
Okay, so updating Java to its latest version made the game finally work for me (from simply double-clicking jar file). I would recommend putting info about minimum required java version somewhere in the description, it would make getting this thing to run less frustrating.
And unfortunately, there isn't all that much to say about the game itself. It's very basic shooter, that neatly fits theme, I'll give you that, but there is little in a way of challenge or progression. Simple addition of "enemies" speeding up with passage of time, would give it a bit o challenge. Great job of writing it all in pure java though.

Do I need specific Java version, maybe?
I'm on Windows yea.
Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again
happens with both the exe and the jar
I had OpenJDK 14.
