Zaxar

[theotherguy]

hey, this is my first real amateur game (it probably shouldn't be in this thread) that my friend and I have been coding over the past week. I think its in a playable enough state to show off our progress. So here it is, Zaxar. (Although the name sounds like Zaxxon, it is actually more like geometry wars) Right now we just have one type of enemy and powerup, and the hit detection is really terrible. Also, its quite easy at the moment.


Download<<double-click on the jar file. WASD for movement, mouse for firing.

The highest score I can get is around 3000.

How do we run it?
EDIT: Doubleclicking it just opens WinRAR for me...

there is an executable .jar file inside the zip. If its opening winrar it means you probably don't have java or are not associating .jar files with java.
