Updates:
12/12/10: The PC version is now fixed, Enjoy!
12/14/10: Windows Vista install problems should be fixed, but I do not have a Vista machine to test. Please drop me a note if you are now able to run the game on Vista.
Downloaded the PC version (for WinXPsp2). The executable gives an error message, “Data folder not found”, with details “There should be ‘BankersDozenWindows_Data’ folder next to the executable”. I made a folder with that name, but I still get the error message when I try to run the executable.
Can’t play it
On Vista
have issues with copying/extracting “already a folder with the same name as this file blah”
after messing around i open the exe
“should be ‘BankersDozenWindows_Data’ folder next to the executable”.
there is that file next to the executable though.
Banker’s Dozen is now playable and available in PC and Mac varieties. I would like to thank Paul Krugman for inspiring the project, Peter Brinson for his fantastic review of the game, and all of my friends and Happymakers at USC for their assistance.

Those of you who would like to enter the intellectual sausage factory that spawned this experimental game can take a look at my research paper.
There seems to be missing a data folder with this game. I keep on getting an error when I run the exe.

@Chris – sorry about that. I’ve tested the game successfully on several XP machines, but I don’t have access to Vista. Will look into it.
