It was always going to be a challenge, my mum's 60th was on Saturday so that was the whole day written off and I spent four hours travelling home today (Sunday) but I was on a coach with a power socket so I could still work! I had a go at a platformer and it's a least playable if not super fun!
To make it work on a debian type OS (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint) you should just need to install python-pygame and run python main.py
To make it work on windows, unzip it and run main.exe
Pretty good! Simple but the theme obviously applies. I would have liked the horizontal motion to be a bit less "sticky" (i.e motion stops as soon as you release the key), but otherwise pretty good.
Well, I guess I was in for a surprise. Getting out of the pit was simple, yet an effective idea for the theme. Short, as anything out a 48hrs jam packed with family events, but interesting. However, I couldn't run it with pygame, but the Windows binary worked just fine Wine.

For packaging up I can recommend cx_freeze., it's not perfect but for a windows build it works pretty well.
As for the game, I wasn't able to get very far, I could not make the long diagonal jump. But a decent entry for one day of work :-).
I'm going to give you middling scores for now since you're my first rating.
Good job getting this out in that short weekend!
But too short :(
