Really liked the concept, art style was nice too. Trap instructions could have been a little clearer though.

Pretty fun, but the instructions could've been better. I waas somewhat confused at the start. Also not having to restart the whole application to restart the level would've been nice :)

Simple but fun!
I lost before I had the chance to fully understand mechanics and had to stop and reopen the application. What about a restart button?

Love the idea, but seems that the characters walk a bit slowly, isn't?

Thanks guys for all the positive feedback! We would like to have added a restart button but school came between and we lost the last day of development, so we didn't have time to polish. The walking might seem a bit slow for some, but we were afraid that the puzzle would be to hard if they walked any faster. Once again, thanks and we really appreciate your comments :D

Rename the file to TheBandits.jar and place it in your user directory, mine would be "Erik". Then try:
java -jar TheBandits.jar
I hope that's answering your question.

Nice idea, but I'm missing audio

The visuals are really cute. The people walk slow and it's not clear enough how the traps work. It would be nice, if the player is more involved! I hope you keep working :)
