I cant run the game
So, I downloaded the game from the website by hitting the "play" button, but then when I clicked it it says "which program do you want to use to open this file?" and brings up things like internet explorer and notepad. I tried using every single one, but they all either give me some code, or nothing at all.

Sounds like you don't have Java installed.

Here is Java's download page: https://java.com/en/download/
Here is a list of all versions if you have an issue with the default: https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
If you're on windows you can Shift+Right-Click > "Open command window here"

This will bring up a console in your current directory.
From there type in "java -jar <file>"

Not sure exactly how to do that in any other OS.
Again on Windows (Windows 8.1) this is how the default program should look.

Right-click the file and select properties to get the window on the left up.
