First game jam, and this game I think would have been better as a flash game it's so simple. Simple doesn't mean boring or unenjoyable. There's 4 difficulty levels, and your score can go infinitely (within the range of floating point numbers on your machine) high.
As per the theme, I made this game in C, using only openGL, glfw3, and cstdlib (math.h, and strings.h for memcpy). I may try out emscripten to get a web version, or compile with static libs, so I can provide.
I tried to make menus intuitive without text. I'd like to get feedback on that.
Please include your highscore in the comments. Mine so far are: green: 2075 yellow: 742 orange: 893 red: 103
--Stuff I wish I'd done *music. *thought off a better name *maybe some more 3d effects and animations with the - sweet goodness there's a lot of jumping platform games.
--Stuff I wish I hadn't done *wrote my own mini linear algebra lib *used glfw3 (glfw 2.7 might be better for other people, I'll try and fix it)
Updates: windows binary is up, but finicky linux built with static glfw3 and static glew1.9, so no problems there linux binary now linked to static glfw3 and glew1.7 linux download is now zip file with README and launcher
Nice polygons. It's good to see another Linux developer, too. I don't fully understand the menus, but I believe my highscores are: Red: 303 Orange: 803 Yellow: 3003 Green: too easy

Sadly it doesn't start on my Win XP 32-bit laptop.
It is pretty awesome to see a game written in C. The game is fun, and I liked that there is no text in the entire game, but I couldn't understand how the scoring works.
I could run the game, but couldn't tell what I was supposed to do. I figured out moving around, and got some blocks to change color, I think, but it didn't tell me a score anywhere that I could see. It was hard to bounce where I wanted because I couldn't control the camera angle.
