It hung when I tried to run fullscreen (Windows 7), but running in a window worked. I didn't manage to blow anything up. When an enemy appeared, the framerate went way down. I tried shooting it, but the bullets didn't seem to have any effect...

One more thing - you might want to break the 32bit and 64bit windows builds into separate files, since the download was large and quite slow.

I will have to look into this fullscreen stuff :/
Anyway I think I might have made the mechs a bit to sturdy. You can destroy them you just have to hit them a couple of times.

Battlemechs ! /o/
The move of the robot are ok but it would be better with some kind od dash using the jump bar and activable in air.
I also miss the traditionnal white lines smoke behind the missiles :)
Good overall !

Wouldn't start on GNU/Linux x86_64. I've tried the 32 and 64-bit versions and with the 64-bit all I got was a black screen; 32-bit version didn't do anything at all.

It's not working on Windows 7 64-bit. Based on what I'm seeing in system_err.txt, it's looking for the 64-bit version of the libraries even on the 32-bit version of the game.

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jinput-dx8_64 in java.library.path
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jinput-raw_64 in java.library.path

Windows 7 64-bit, the 64-bit version did not start, but the 32-bit version did. 32-bit version is very laggy, even with vsync disabled. Are you attempting to draw everything on the map? I like the content though, and the arrow/distance to target. Not a big fan of the WASD. Would benefit with acceleration and a throttle.

Love the scenery! Unfortunately it's unplayably laggy for me (Linux 32-bit). I managed to find an enemy and I couldn't keep it on my screen for more than two frames at a time, forget aiming at it. The mouse looking seemed really unresponsive. I felt like I had to drag my mouse all the way across my desk to turn the mech by 30 degrees.

Really liked the graphics, too bad the enemy killed my framerate and stopped me from playing.
