Break The Wall

This is my entry for the Mini Ludum Dare #33.

It is written in java using libgdx. I used bfxr to create the sound clips and gimp to create a few textures. The rest of the game is composed entirely of runtime-generated box geometries, allowing me to focus on the code and not worry too much about the art side of things.

To play: download and run this jar file: btw.jar

source: btw-minild33.tgz

Windows:   double click the file
Linux/Mac:   java -jar btw.jar

How To Play:
use either WASD or u/d/l/r to control the position of the character
press spacebar to jump
press enter to fire

Enjoy :)

Nice game :) I would be very interested to know how you managed to package it all into one executable jar? I have been having troubles integrating other jars inside of it…. tried webstart as an alternative but its just too complex for me atm…. got any tutorials on making an executable jar? Again, I liked the game :) keep up the good work!

In the interest of full disclosure: I just updated the .jar file linked in this post. I enabled vsync (to reduce unnecessary cpu usage) and fixed a bug that caused the bullets to behave strangely in the later levels.
