Commit 299cd908... in my github project is the competition release. (Commits 2180f1ae... and dc7a6d92... are catastrophic bug fixes.)

The game is a ninja rope action platformer with bonus #NOKILL - You only get one skill; the rope! There are enemy ninjas that throw ninja stars at you, but rather than hurting you, they can only cut your rope. Mind the gap!

Controls: WASD or Arrow Keys to move. Space bar to jump. Hold shift to shadow-dash. Mouse to use rope: point-and-click.

Detaching ropes: Either use another rope, or jump to automatically detach.

Pro-roper technique: While shadow-dashing, jump and attach a rope. Use your forward-momentum to propel yourself in an upward arc. At the peak of the arc, quickly reverse direction and jump in mid-air to do a mega ninja rope master fling. It will send you flying onto the platform to which your rope was attached.
