ATTENTION:
If you cannot start the game (because you have no java installed, or the path variable not set), you have to options to fix this:
1. add Java to your PATH variable
2. replace javaw by (including the quotes) "%programfiles%\Java\jre7\bin\javaw" (given you have java installed).

#YOGO Platform is our first entry to Ludum Dare. We decided to enter in the Jam, because we wanted to pull this project of as a team.
Sadly we decided only one day before the event started to enter it and so we had no preparation. Also we had no experience with Slick 2D.
What worked:
- We actually "finished" a "game" in one weekend :D
- The graphics are not the worst we have ever seen
Where we failed:
- The first idea was dumped 15 hours in
- The idea that we used was not well elaborated
- We made no plan
- The code is total crap and patched-up like hell :)
For our first time in Ludum Dare we were pretty successful, since we finsihed a game and we are confident, that we do better next time. :)
Controls:
- left arrowkey : move left
- right arrowkey: move right
- space : activate platform
Description:
#YOGO Platform is about a platform(you) that tries to save the last robot out of a burning factory building,
that is constantly trying to jump in the fire below your platform.
To fullfill this quest you can activate your platform by pressing "SPACE". But watch your powerbar, so you do not run out of power.
Collect the falling yellow batterys to fill your powerbar and avoid the falling white batterys, that take power from your powerbar.
Programming Language: Java
Graphics Engine: Slick2D
Programmers:
Malte Heinzelmann
Phillip Schichtel
Jonas Dann
Artist:

Sounds:

Cheat codes:
Type the cheatcode and the press "end" on your keyboard
- "phillip" : to turn off the collisions (insider joke)
- "jonas" : to make some of the fonts black (insider joke)
- "malte" : make the game a bit harder ;)
- "soundoff": to turn off the sound

Also, nice pixel art.

But doesn't seems fair that you can't control the robot ( or I think I can't control it). You have to collect the bateries to keep playing, but you can't move the robot!
@Nichii if you installed only the jre not the jdk, you have to add java to you %Path% in Windows. Or change the execution path in the run.cmd.
On top of the description on this page the default jre path ist written.
You missed the theme, but so did I.. ;)
Nice work!
A bit hard to see everything.
But my computer is from the dark ages too..
