Escape the Underground by TomboFry
You are Frederick, a little guy who eats blocks and rocks for a living, and unfortunately you're sent to hell. No one knows why...
Anyway, your task is to try and escape, away from hell, and back to your previous life. The evil spirits want you dead, every 10 seconds. If you don't satisfy them, you will be destroyed and return to the last place you stood.
If you run out of time, you restart the stage, but if you die, you go to the last checkpoint!
WARNING: Don't play/rate if you don't like difficult games, you probably aren't going to enjoy this (You might, but just keep that in mind, thanks!)

Ah, the full screen mode have a few graphics issues in the intro
Only issue I had was with jumping. It didn't always jump while holding right or left at the same time.
The graphics where really nice and stylistic, the music was neat and the sound effects fitted in well. The level design was great, I found the difficulty curve to be quite harsh at the beginning but it evened out nicely towards the end.
Great job!
Other than that, this game was awesome! The gameplay was smooth, graphics and audio were sweet and fitting each other.
I loved the little twist in the last level (it made me think of Mr. Dark's Candy Chateau in the first Rayman, which had a similar thing at some point).
Great work !
Good job, incredible for compo!
like it, nice art :D
Hard! (I like hard and frustrating games =p)
