It's been over two months since I started this project with Normand. That fateful day I joked, "We should make a Java RPG using only Swing components". I had no idea I'd receive a "let's do it, then" in response.
And thus, Gabriel's Wrath was born. There are tons of references to him in there and absolutely none to me - an homage to the fact that he coded virtually everything that made the game work. On the other hand, I took care of all the creative work and virtually everything the player sees is done by me.
This was a relatively large project for us given our small period of time and minimal experience with Java. It was fun though; lots of late nights with multiple cups of coffee sitting on Gmail chat working through the game with Normand. Adding unnecessary stuff, having Dylan point out things to us (he's an amazing debugger) etc.
With all that said, the game can be obtained here with a user guide that covers pretty much everything you need to know.
Requires the JRE to run. It can be obtained here.
And yes, I know how easy it is to mess with the game but on that note altering the files will more likely than not mess your game up. It takes the fun out of it anyway (though you can still try to do it if you really want to).
If you decide to download this and try it, please attempt to enjoy it to some extent.
Cheers,
Dan

You know, it's kind of depressing now that this is over. Developing this was one of my main pastimes and now it's complete.
I actually feel like shit now.
