Figured out my browser issue on itch.io so now I have the browser version available on itch.io and it's working correctly.

- GDD: GDD seems nice. Would love images of the mechanics in the game mechanics section. Would also like if there were an development timeline. Game: Worth mention I played the GX web version. The menu's buttons seems little confused. Nice to see there is an form of coyote time. But the platform is very brutal for those who have motion disabilities.

Tell us about your game!
Hot Potato is a fast paced side scrolling action game. There is a spreading wall of fire which you need to run away from. If the fire touches you or you fall down a cliff into the pit of fire it's game over. Actually fairly complete prototype in it's current state with 2 endings and 2 difficulties. Could add more levels or other dangers later. No sound effects, only music.
Controls
A & D or arrow keys to run, space bar to jump.
Web version up on GX games as well:

Extra Notes
Solo dev, been doing it for only about a month and this is my first game. No prior experience other than being a bit of an amateur artist in my spare time though this is my first expedition into pixel art.
