I managed to fix the glitch where a harvester being destroyed would crash the game.
Download here.
To install, just unzip and copy "com" into the .jar, just like a Minecraft mod.
Have fun playing the game without worrying about crashes!
EDIT: Also, to be fair, I don't take credit for being clever enough to look through the actual code and find the problem. A google search brought me to a post here, telling how to do it, and I just did the change and the compiling.
You downloaded it.
You can rename the .exe to a .jar, but I've had problems with that.
Honestly the best thing to do is to download the mac version, which works on Windows as it's just the raw jar.
I just tried your patch with both the Mac and Linux versions, both freeze the game upon hitting the start button. The music runs and everything, but it stays on the main screen and the start button stays in it's pressed animation.
And I also tried changing the .EXE to a .JAR, like you said, also fails(also like you said, was a final troubleshoot attempt ;p), says the archive is corrupted after the rename when placing the patch.
UberSoft Technologies has made a version of the Catacomb Snatch game that mojang made during mojam. This version is also provided DRM-Free to anyone who got the Humble Bundle.
[Edit] Someone has sent me a link to a post in jebs twitter saying that its ok to distribute. So you no longer need to enter the key.
In Uber Catacomb Snatch I am trying to do mostly bug fixes to start with before taking on things like saving and stuff. I will add this bug to my list of things to fix.

The problem with this fix is that the harvester will no longer drop coins when destroyed. This bug is fixed in Uber Catacomb Snatch
Eforen, I'm going to be completely honest. I don't trust you for the fact that you need our keys.
Thank you for being honest I like that. And you need not worry any longer there is no key barrier. I confirmed that it is ok to distribute with out using the key so now I don't and frankly it makes it way easyer!
I have also implemented robots collecting coins now! It's way cool to watch.

They don't scan .jars correctly.
