As it happens, these are located around perilous terrain -with lakes of fire and everything. Luckily for you, you are equipped with a grappling hook to navigate such hazardous terrain.\r\n\r\nOnly a windows version for now, if you're on OSX you're welcome to get the source and build it  yourself -that should run just fine if you know ruby. I just wasn't able to export to an .app.\r\n\r\nInstructions on playing from the source files on OSX:\r\n-If you don't have them, install XCode & the developer tools from developer.apple.com (they make you sign up, but it's free)\r\n-This will install ruby, which we can use from terminal\r\n-Open up Terminal\r\n-Type the following commands:\r\ngem install chingu\r\nsudo gem install texplay\r\n-The second will prompt you for your password, enter it\r\n-These two commands are installing the framework Chingu (github.com\/ippa\/chingu), and Texplay (used for texture scaling & chingu's 'retrofy' method\r\n-You should be all set up now\r\n-Download the source from the link above, unzip it, place it wherever you like\r\n-In Terminal, type 'cd ' then drag the 2110 folder onto the terminal window. it should read something like this now:\r\ncd \/Users\/YourName\/Downloads\/2110\r\n-It will be different depending on where you put the folder\r\n-Now type the command\r\nruby app.rb\r\n-This should launch the game! Hooray!\r\n\r\n\r\nTools Used:\r\n-Chingu & Ruby\r\n-TextMate\r\n-Processing ( to parse images and create map files )\r\n-Photoshop\r\n-cfxr\r\n-Fruity Loops + tb_toad plugin\r\n\r\nAny comments\/criticisms are welcome! :)\r\nOh, and let me know if it breaks of course.\r\nThanks!<\/p>","title":"2110 - Year of the Cratebot"}
