Notes
Turns out GameMaker and HTML5 really don't get along. Exports of this game to HTML5 had several game-breaking issues and I couldn't manage to debug them all with the little time I had left. It didn't help that this was my first game jam, as well as my first finalized platformer, so I decided to massively sacrifice the quality of the codebase to make sure that I'd have time for other areas of gamedev. In the end, the spaghetti code and GameMaker's poor HTML5 support made it impossible to have a browser-ready version. Hopefully I can figure out the quirks of it for my next release!
If you find any technical issues, let me know in the comments. This is just a quick jam game, but if there's something serious enough I'll try to fix it.

That's a good game, fun game. Very good job of setting up the player to learn elements of the game in a controlled environment before adding challenges that use those elements.
