Tell us about your game!
It's a platformer that aims to subvert expectations. At a certain point in the visuals of the character will begin to chance, one body part at a time. The core mechanic is the spreading of a type of corruption that causes the player to transform and begin to destroy the environment meaning too man mistakes will make progression difficult and eventually result in failure. In addition to standard movement the player has the ability to grab onto ledges and jump from the side of platforms, this will allow them to delay damaging platforms until their arms have been corrupted.

Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes (it came to my attention very very late that the PDF I saved of the GDD seems to have some sort of issue, I submitted at nearly 2AM after having worked on it for 32 hours straight, I'm including a drive link since I can't modify the downloads now and I really hope this doesn't disqualify me.) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-asoM0nihi9mrN6BsjYEYncvkcWxM2Co6jNdATUKKlg/edit?usp=drive_link

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes

Extra Notes
There's a superman glitch, it was left in on purpose and I encourage you to exploit it if you can figure out how to trigger it consistently. Additionally you have more player agency than you might think.
