Maybe he died.

I hope not....

Honestly foXgog was never the most active participant when it was his turn but he always showed up again at one point. I'm too lazy to search but I believe to remember he once complained about rather unstable internet accessibility in his area.

Anyhow I've "cheated" and can tell that it's NOT Frontier. I'm just not sure whether I should give a hint at this point.

I think there should be a failsafe for when a person fails to show up for a prolonged period of time. Either someone else can provide the hints, or move the turn over to a volunteer.

If it's been over a week with no response, I'd say it's fair game to move on?

Would you mind taking over and providing additional hints for this game?

Hell, I tried to cheat and still wasn't successful.

That is probably because the screenshot provided was altered...?

Anyhow, we're looking for a "fairly recent" puzzle platformer made by a lone indi game dev. The player character is being cut out from this screenshot. I'll look for more and gradually uncover it as needed because it really would give the game away I reckon.

Yep, you're correct.

What a quick find though, what gave it away this easily? foXgog's original screenshot was taken from at least the alternate ending but rotated 180°. Google found the video matching the style but even then it took me a bit to figure it out: https://youtu.be/CWjFGBrTccc?t=160
