A downloadable game

Standard Bearer is a 2D fantasy action game with RTS elements. Play as the standard bearer of one of 8 factions (Elves, Dwarves, Orcs/Goblins, Men, Undead, Beasts, Chaos, and Lizardfolk) in an assault against the enemy castle. 

While you yourself do not fight, you collect gold across the map, tactically light explosives, and call in and lead your armies, ultimately breaching gates and going through 3 levels (withdrawing to a previous one when necessary) until you battle the enemy standard bearer. 

This was made over ~4 weeks as a university project, learning and applying C++.

Hmm, between 4 very different windows devices the downloaded .exe works fine for me, so not sure if I can fix yours. Perhaps make sure that the .exe stays in the same folder as everything else, and try make your own shortcut/modify the existing one? Apologies, thanks for bringing it to my attention all the same. 

Good to know thanks! The shortcut I forgot about, but the .exe still does seem to work for me, I've tested on multiple computers. I'll try some different ones, perhaps it is dependent on some installed software that I had on all of mine. 

it looks like the shortcut points to a path on your computer, and the actual StandardBearer.exe bugs out with a "file not found"
