I tried the game on Mac but I couldn't work out how to control the cricket to get it to move
Same issues as others mentioned. Tried on windows but was not able to get it working. For exporting there is also another option to pack the pck into exe. That way you need only the exe for upload. but splitting them up leads to the below mentioned errors.
I managed to get this working on MacOS only, very interesting mechanic I think it has a lot of potential. I got lost on what to do with the cricket on the left but im interested to see how far this mechanic could go. Maybe I failed to understand but sometimes the icons dont command the cricket the way I think it does
You need to put content and executable files together for the game to work
For Windows:
You need to put the exe and the pck file together using a program like 7zip or winra
For Linux:
You need to put the pck, sh and the x86_64 files together
When these files are together in the same folder they will work correctly but without them you get an error because the game can't find what it needs to run
Seems like you forgot to upload some files from the windows build output.
The exe file doesn't work for me; throws an error when I try to start the application.
