Wow, GNU/Linux only, you sure won't have many votes, but you will at least have mine !
I didn't manage to run the executable but it did compile fine from the source.
By the way, consider putting a root directory in the tar.gz for the executable, it is a bit annoying to have the file spreading in the current dir.

Although I managed to run the game, it was barely playable. Why not WASD like everybody ? :( The time given is way to short for controls so hard to use. I managed to land on a platform and I gave up. The weird camera angle didn't help.

This may seems harsh but I see potential (3D with SDL, that's quite impressive) and it could be good with better controls.

*goes back to closet to check if my old Ubuntu machine would work, it doesn't :(. you should make this game more compatible for all other users, Linux users only make up 1 percent of this whole competition.

Hmm. Couldn't start it - it couldn't find SDL :/

Frimkron, what system did you use for your test? You must have SDL 1.2, SDL-gfx, SDL-Image and SDL-mixer. Maybe I forgot to mention this ;-)

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a Windows build!
Also, worked hard to fix the timing and the physics.

(maybe I should have left the physics broken?)

I've got a 404 html error on the linux link.

Sorry, fixed the Linux link.

@montyontherun thanks

Well, I expected something completely else than I got, I thought it would be more like a first-person jetpack flying simulator... but whatever.
This was weird... in a likable way. Except those controls really suck the fun out of it. I would second WASD controls and maybe SPACE or F to fly.
But I eventually managed to complete it, it just closed itself immediately afterwards...

Really cool idea and interpretation of the theme. The controls were a little wonky but overall nice work.

Well folks, should I "fix" the controls (despite my preference to the current scheme), leave it as it is or add a switch? Is it against the rules?

And thanks @cxsquared!
