I'm on Windows7, and I've got the same trouble : the game launch and suddenly close. Impossible to launch the game again. I've encountered this problem with two other projects. It's probably a security protection from my antivirus. I'll try later, with my antivirus desactivated.
Impossible to desactivate my antivirus (BitDefender). And it's the reason why the game stops : my antivirus delete immediately the main "exe" file as soon as I launch it. I'll not be able to play this game (and some others of this gamejam), I'm sorry.
EDIT : with the new Windows version, no problem at all ! Great ! ^_^
