No SFML libs included with the Linux build, though I got it working. I've made games without an engine before (raylib, instead of SFML). I understand the difficulty and all, especially with the time frame. The movement is a bit jank. I also see in "roomdat" that some levels were meant to be loaded from images... bold move to do in a game jam haha, hard coding it is the only option you have with such limited time :)

Had some weirdness with the installer like other folks, but I just skipped all of the files it complained about and I think it ran fine. I made it to the top the first time but didn’t quite understand the teleporter mechanic on the second climb. RIP Hero <3

I think something may have messed up for me. The spots that seemed like ledges I didn't have any collision with, I don't know if I missed something or if it just isn't working right on my computer. I tried to jump on several of them and couldn't make it up the mountain at all. Let me know if I missed something, I'd love to give the game a fair shake! 

RIP Hero

That wasn't working for me... I'll try again when I get a chance!

That was interesting. The splash screen was really cool.
