To Players: A workaround is to enable NPAPI plugins in your Chrome settings. Click or Copy+Paste this URL in to a tab:
As of September 2015 however, this option will no longer be available.
Other browsers (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari) and Flash are unaffected, but FWIW there is no Unity Player or Silverlight for Linux.X
I was about two minutes late to send it in for the Ludum Dare, oh well jam works I guess :\ It crashes a lot too. Other than that it's pretty good. It was written in C++ using SDL and all that jazz.
I've updated it to feature less bugs, better movement, more clarification and stuff have fun.
The idea is that you can control cancer through cig nodes, which is pretty much a very broken whip that allows you to hop and climb around as well as 'slaughter' enemies. It's a very short, albeit difficult, platformer whose mechanics aren't shown very well in the early level.
You might get an error when running, something about MSVCRT or whatever, anyways, point is, I compiled the game using visual studios 2013, so you'll need the visual studios 2013 redistributable package: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 . Your computer might already have it, most of my friends had it anyways.
This game, like every other game I make, is meant to be difficult, but not in an unfair way (except that wall climbing, wall climbing is a bitch)

Too hard for me. Sorry, but I can't waste time for fails while jumping without any progress. I like idea of mechanics and rude humor, and feel unsatisfied because can't see whole game.
Thanks for the comments, I've now made movement easier, made tutorial much more clear and easy and doubled the amount of levels (as well as refining old ones) :)
Good entry, could improve the art, but I understand that you used C++ and SDl, maybe next time you can go with Construct or Gamemaker. But good entry.
Cool game. Nice concept with metrodvania elements. Wall climbing lots a bit glitchy but the overall physics worked surprisingly well.
Can't start because MSVCP120.dll is missing from your computer.
Solved that here. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784
Well, I didn't make it too far, but interesting platformer.

took me one hour and a half and it doesn't seem to be an exit to this last level, all the exits I found didn't work and I swear I tried them all.
I loved your game, like really really. too bad for those 2 minutes, this is by far my favorite entry !
Oops, it's supposed to crash the game when you hit that point, but it looks like it doesn't. Thanks for your kind words though (y)
Wow this is hard, just how I like it! :D
Solid little platformer.
The jumpers seem a good idea but I also find it a little too hard for me, even if I reached a cig note!
Hard game, didn't like the graphics enough to pull through the whole thing. Still a solid entry!
Difficult game. Much because the hit detection is not responsive. This is especially troublesome when the key doesn't want to unlock the door until it really touches it. That level where I have to carry the key with the nodes is horrible for that reason and the key doesn't want to regenerate sometimes. (It's nice that it resets into position if you lost it, but only works 3/4 at a time.)
I had to quit because it got too challenging. Not a good idea to have one hard part and then a harder part in a same level.
It's an interesting yet challenging game.

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
This gave me cancer, but in the best of ways.
Kind of like that other time where I ate 100 hamburgers and then by the end of that week I had intercepted cancer right after, only to have been worth it.
