Ran it flawlessly on my Linux box. Great game! Has a lot of potential. I really hope to see more versions of it.

Hi! Thanks for giving it a try! Happy you liked it!

Also glad to know that it works on Linux. I will try to get a machine set up so that I can provide a ready-to-run Linux build at some point...

Can i run it on Ubuntu 18.04? I have racket installed from official repo.

Developer

Hi! As far as I know, you should be able to... Download the castle_src_20180429_2310.zip package and see if it works for you. (Use  %castle.rkt from the %src/ directory). That is the version that I compiled my submission from, so if they're not kidding about the cross platform-ability, you should be set. There are no dependencies outside of Dr. Racket.

Thanks for checking it out!

Nice job on the art; I enjoyed that aspect of it the most.

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it! 

If you check the %img/ directory in the package file, you'll find all the graphical assets I created for the game. I didn't get to use a bunch of them, like the other monsters, so that's the only way you can see them now...

I enjoyed it...cool little game and only 27MB wow!

I would definitely like to see more.

Artwork was quite well done.

Hi! Glad you liked it! I ran out of time, but I hope to update it with more content after the Game Jam rating period ends. Thanks!

Not much fun.

The game reminds on the Wumpus.

The fighting system is boring.

The textboxes are nice.

Hi! Thanks for taking a look! For me, I was pretty excited finally getting the fighting system working at all, but I can understand that may not translate in the experience of the actual game! ; - )
