So, not sure what happened but I'm no longer able to run the game (v0.1.21.0) It started off fine, I played a few times and made more than a few enemies; then I went to get dinner and I've been unable to load the game ever since. The only thing I can think of is that I enabled the setting to preload all assets before I quit out. Here's the error report if you want it.

Sometimes it's AppleKeep, sometimes it's HeavyTrainer1, sometimes it's something else.

I also get a "Bad Image" error whenever I try to run the .exe, I could only play by launching the .jar file.
I'm running on Windows 7 btw, 32 bit. I can elaborate with more details if you'd like.

Hey, that's strange - it seems like maybe some of your assets are corrupted? You can disable that setting by finding the preferences file, on windows it's typically at C:/Users/<YourUser>/.prefs/My Preferences/tales-of-androgyny-preferences - then in <entry key="preload">true</entry> change true to false.

Aah, that explains why I couldn't find the pref file in the installation folder then!

That seems to have done the trick, at least the .jar loads now. Would be nice if the .exe file worked though, but it doesn't seem to like the jvm.dll file in the " jre\bin\server " folder.

Hopefully this helps, at least it'll help me. Finding issues like this will give me clues in what to look for when I finally decide to produce my own games.
