Compatibility

This is a Java game.

It requires version 1.5.0 or later of the Java runtime. However, there are known problems with sound in many versions of java, so it is recommended to use Java 1.5.0_06-b05 or later (the sounds have been verified to work with this version of Java on Win2K and WinXP Pro).

Recommended minimum screen resolution: 1024 x 768 pixels.


Installation instructions
  1. Make sure you have version 1.5.0 or later of the Java Runtime (JRE) installed. For correctly working sounds it is recommended to use 1.5.0_06-b05 or later. You can install a Java Runtime for free from Sun Microsystems' Java Technology page.
  2. Download the Ast.jar file (see Downloads below.)
  3. Double click on the Ast.jar file to run the game. Alternatively you can run it from the command line by typing java -jar Ast.jar.
