Out of the Sea by Uberi
EDIT: AHK = AutoHotkey. There's a link below!
Hello, this is our first Ludum Dare event!
Out of the Sea is a quirky, random game that makes somewhat less sense than it appears at first, if that's possible. It might make you giggle uncontrollably. Or not. In any case we had a ton of fun making this and hope you all enjoy it!
This game was made with [AutoHotkey](http://autohotkey.com)! It's an awesome language for scripting, automation, and apparently, building games! You'll need it, too, if you're going to try out the game from the source code. Specifically, get AutoHotkey_L.
Speaking of the source, I'd recommend protective eyewear before gazing upon it. It's quite messy and might be giving off low levels of radiation. Please see a doctor if symptoms persist.

By the way, I would appreciate it if you also tried the source code version, might help me figure out what the problem is.
Running Win 7 64bit up to date.
Windows 7 32 bits.
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit.
For now, I don't even know where to begin debugging yet.
That included forking a ton of processes to handle sounds asynchronously. Hey, don't point that thing at me. It's ugly, it's slow, and it causes kittens to die, but it works.
For now a tentative workaround is to install AutoHotkey at the website provided in the post. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to change this anymore, so I won't just to be safe :)
Running Win8 RP. No AHK.
Running on WinXP 32 bits.
If anyone has installed AutoHotkey and is still experiencing these issues, please sound off in the comments here. Otherwise I can only Ask you to install it and give it another shot. Thank you for your patience! I am at a mobile device right now but a post-Jam version will soon be made available that will probably make the code significantly cleaner.
You may have noticed that I've added a notice about the AHK requirement. Or not. I can't figure out how to make this text bold, anyways, it doesn't support MarkDown, HTML, or BBCode.
Ps, I have used a lot of your scripts, thank you very much.
