Inverse Polarity now has Quick Play!

Oh, well that’s a shocker because as far as I knew, we couldn’t get Slick games to work with quickplay on Game Jolt! Hurrah!

Here’s the how-to:
Java fails when it executes a child program that prints out more than a few lines to the console. I bet you didn’t know that! So, you’ll need to write a little batch script to execute your Slick game (you do that anyway right? how else would it find the natives!).

echo off
java -jar -Djava.library.path=./lib/natives InversePolarity.jar << stdout.txt

The line “echo off” should turn off output from the batch script.
The suffix “<< stdout.txt” should make all output from your game go into that file.

And with that, no output = successful quickplay!

Happy Slick Quickplaying!
