Worked for me! It was quite fun, I completed it. Music, Sfxs and atmosphere are good.
Also, I got the same error as everyone else but I run the program from the command prompt with java -jar alonegame.jar and then it worked but complained about finding the BlenderModelLoader.
Chromium for some reason doesn't find anything at http://fury.srb2.org/ld22/alonegame.jar .
wget works though.
PS:
$ java -jar alonegame.jar

Could not find the main class: alonegame.AloneGame. Program will exit.
$ java -version

I also get that error, when I double click the jar on mac Snow Leopard.

You need to use at least version 1.7 to play. Sorry guys, I know a lot of Linux users in particular still don't have access to 7 on their repos. I didn't really have a need to use 1.7 so there's no excuse for me, sorry :\
If you're getting "Could not find the main class", then upgrade your JRE. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
I think the graphics and sounds for the game were quite good, but the gameplay was lacking. It could have done with some more puzzle type challenges. But well done, some good effort must have gone into this game!
@kernel panic, about halfway through the last day I realized that I needed to implement a ton more gimmicks to keep the puzzles interesting. There wasn't enough time, so I just submitted it as is. I'm not proud of the game itself, but it's the underlying code that made the compo for me.
I couldn't even download the game... Both chromium and wget complained about the link not existing.

It needs a bit more puzzles but it is a good labyrinth game. Graphics and audio gives works well together and give the players the right mood.
Can't even find the file to run the game. :( Sorry. (It opens a zip and I can't see anything inside which looks like a game.)
Well I guess my video card is just too bad to play this:

I would make the music louder: I turned it up 'cause it was so quiet, then the first sound effect was so loud I flinched.
It only started to get interesting at the last puzzle - that was the only one that involved some small amount of thinking, IMO. I wanted to play more after that, but then it ended.
I think you could've come up with a few extra decent puzzles without needing to code more contraptions.
Sorry am not prepared to upgrade to java 7 to play this, but the lighting looks cool in the screenshots :)

Doesn't work for me, I get 'Could not find the main class: alonegame.AloneGame. Program will exit.'
