Couldn't Submit. Request For a Pardon?

Hello, so my team was unable to submit it. We had a major setback just a couple days to the release with our gameplay programmer flaking on us and not having the code ready, provided or informing that he would be acting contrary to plans.

Also, not showing up when expected. Leading to us having to scrap a lot and make gameplay mechanics within unrealistic timelines.

 This led to the project needing a lot done. Then making the levels and interfaces coherent and up to date today led to the deadline being missed, when initially we had planned to build on Friday.

 Full responsibility is still taken and we would like it if there is a pardon, we know there are others that have said the same fate. We were building when the deadline passed. This was just the result of one thing which came suddenly. Your request whichever it is, is awaited. Thank you for hosting the jam.
