The graphics, while not AAA material (though I'm not sure that's what you should be striving for :P) served the game well. Music was nice and not obtrusive. You fit the theme pretty well - it was a little anti-climactic and short, though. Also, jumping was a tad weird."},{"author_name":"Ernyz","author_uid":"2537","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 2:42pm","epoch":1367505420,"text":"Nice little game, would like to explore more of that island :)"},{"author_name":"skintkingle","author_uid":"1579","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 3:03pm","epoch":1367506680,"text":"V0ID, I got the same as Zhrack, Unfortunately it's literally as he says.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>&quot;Java Virtual Machine Launcher&quot;, &quot;A Java Exception has occurred.&quot; and that's it.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I think this might be an x86\/x64 thing... maybe."},{"author_name":"V0ID","author_uid":"8184","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 3:25pm","epoch":1367508000,"text":"Can you run it via command line and the command &quot;javaw LD26.jar&quot;?

Unfortunately time was short for a nice story line. \r\nDespite of that I'm pleased with what I accomplished.\r\n\r\nContent of the game:\r\nYou play a solitudinarian (a person who lives alone a simple, minimalistic life, detached from society) who suddenly got sick and is now in the need of civilization's knowledge.\r\n\r\nThe game uses libgdx and so I hope that it runs without any problems on any operating system (in the easiest case by double-clicking the \"LD26.jar\" file). Of course you need an installed Java Runtime Environment.\r\n\r\nI will see if I can get an android-port running. I didn't try that before and I do not own an android device myself so I cannot test it well.","title":"Lack of Civilization"}
