A downloadable game

This game on SourceHut.

A platformer built with Zig and raylib. Made in less than 72 hours for the Wowie Jam 3.0.

Pitch
In this game, you will have to exploit common "failure" mechanics in platformers. Lava stun you and propulse you high, checkpoints allow you to death warp. Failure is the way to success in this game.

Build
To play this game, you need to build it. I know, it sucks but I ran out of time. You will need raylib and Zig 0.7.1.
On Arch Linux, running pacman -S raylib zig  should get you what you need.

$ git clone https://git.sr.ht/~kikoodx/painfull-success
$ # Alternatively, you can download the sources on this page.
$ cd painfull-success
$ zig build -Drelease-fast run

Controls
