Hi, could you look in <username>\AppData\Roaming\ThrustMe for a logfile called logging.txt and paste it in here. It might give a clue to why the game closes down on you.
There's no direct cheat to skip levels, but you can kill the astronauts to clear the level faster ;-)
Here you go. A skip-level cheat would be cool, but just being able to load a previous save would be more than good enough.

I know this is a long shot, but two years later I reinstalled your game out of nostalgia and it crashes the exact same way as described above. If I close, reopen, and Continue a game, I cannot go very far down into any cave before the game crashes.
Hi Netbug009 - Thank you for your observations. I will put them on my todo-list for the game. Can't give you a date of an update, as I'm working on other projects at the moment.
I got through a few levels and was enjoying the game. But not it's just closing soon after I begin the level I'm on. If I sit there by the landing pad going up and down, it's fine. But if I get near the little astronaut it closes.
It seems to be level 3 when I get into the cave far enough that the background image changes. I can fly around all I want doing whatever I want as long as I stay high enough up to not have that background. Note that I ran the game as an administrator (Windows 10) and that seems to have solved it.

I tried that but there wasn't even a ThrustMe folder there. Now that I've run as Administrator, the folder is there and logging.txt is there but it's empty. But I've also not had any crashes. :) I will launch without admin and see if I can get it to write there now that the folder and log file exist.

If I run it from the shell directly with java passing the exe to -jar then it ends up with the following exception

Hi, I've uploaded a new release. Maybe this will fix your problems? Maybe you can look in users/username/AppData/Roaming/ThrustMe/logging.txt and see if if logs any erros in there?
Sorry to hear about your problems with the game. If you could help me, I need your game specs, ie. Soundcard and gfx card. Problems probably due to the audio in the game.
I have the same issues. I downloaded it on the Itch client app, and then manually downloaded. It crashed everytime I crashed. Or if I would try to change the keys to W A D.

Every time I try to load a game, it crashes when I go down. So I just play the game until my PC reboots.
Are there any keyboard combos/cheats to skip levels? I really want to play the rest of the levels and not just the first 10-15.

Thank you for the logfile. I will look into the issue and see if I can get it resolved.
Let me see if anything can be done regarding the level skip. I cant promise anything though :)
I know this is a long shot, but two years later I reinstalled your game out of nostalgia and it crashes the exact same way as described above. If I close, reopen, and Continue a game, I cannot go very far down into any cave before the game crashes.
I'm on Windows 11 now, BTW.
Super fun little game! Just the right amount of challenge. Just a few comments:
1. When I failed level 3 and started it again, the main menu music overlapped with the level music when I continued.
2. A visual barrier marking the edge of the map would be useful.

Ok. Let me know how it goes
So i download the game with and without the java but for some reason, no matter what i do, it just doesnt even run and never shows up in task manager.

I looked but the thrust me stuff isnt in the roaming folder, i know i installed it, but its still not showing up.
Hi, then it sounds like it never gets started. I guess there's something else wrong, since Java can't be initiated.
Alas when I attempt to run this game I receive a JNI error even if I attempt to use the bundled JRE version
Can you see what the error is?

Great to hear it! Hope you enjoy the game
Great to hear it! Hope you enjoy the game
I will look into, if I can spot some obvious errors in the game and upload a new version in the near future. I'll keep you posted :)
A fresh version has been uploaded. Update your games, and hopefully you can now play it :)
sure.
intel 6600k, 16gb ram, evga 2080, evga motherboard z170 ftw with onboard audio. Realtek 8 Channel High Definition Audio – ALC1150. win 10.
Sorry to hear about your problems with the game. If you could help me, I need your game specs, ie. Soundcard and gfx card. Problems probably due to the audio in the game.
crash to desktop frequently. i really wanted to play this.
I have the same issues. I downloaded it on the Itch client app, and then manually downloaded. It crashed everytime I crashed. Or if I would try to change the keys to W A D.
Any time I hit a wall the game crashes. A shame too because I would like to play
It only shows me the bottom left corner of the screen
Hi, sorry to hear it. What is your gfx card and screen resolution?
