Have you checked that your GDD is publicly accessible ?
Yes I have!

Is your game set to public on itch.io so we can see it?
It should be!

Summarize your game!
You have been voluntold to compete in the universal show, Challenge Masters, by your home world. This season they have created a maze for the contestants! Failure to complete the maze in time means your world will be destroyed. Everyone will be watching you. Will you make it?

I'm aware the game itself is actually really buggy, but my goal was to learn and actually have enough to submit, bugs or not. My launch devlog goes more into the bugs I'm aware of.

I did not get to all of this, but the ideal for the jam was a darkened maze with lighting like in Among Us, so you could only see so far around you. There would also be cameras in the corners and various intervals in straightaways that would follow you as you walk past. While the start menu would look like an old DVD menu, and the pause screen would show your current position on a TV screen, like you're now at home watching.

Please explain how your game fits the theme.
You wake up finding yourself in a large maze. You notice the cameras watching you, following you as you move through the halls. Without your knowledge, you have been selected to be the candidate on the show Challenge Masters - a show that takes contestents from their homeworlds, and if they do not pass the task of the season, their entire homeworld is destroyed. The world gets a free suscription to the intra-universal channel it's aired on and usually watches their candidate like a hawk, hoping that they survive the challenge, to let the world at large survive.

Did you use Generative AI to make any assets in your game?
Nope!

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
This is my first real game I've made, and it was all by myself.

Congrats on your first completed game.

I liked the idea you went for. If I wasn't able to glitch it would have definitely been hard

Congratulations on completing your first game to a game jam. It's awesome you created a game all by yourself. I like the idea, the fate of the world rests with you. the pixel art the portal is really cool. I don't know if I glitched the game or what, but I got through the walls and made it to the exit.

yeah, the wall thing is a known bug. I'm planning on patching it once the judging is done!
