Install instructions
On Windows, simply extract the game somewhere and run Retrolympics.exe. On Mac, the application is not signed, so Mac OS will refuse to run it at first. If it offers you to move the game to the trash, press cancel, bring up the context menu on the application in finder (CTRL-click or Vo-Shift-M if using VoiceOver) and hold down shift while selecting the "open" command.

I see what you did with that not quite remake of the PS1 logo. It was close enough that anyone who played it will know what you were going for though.
Also the running gets unnaturally fast. The hurdles, I feel like the line is too far back, and even if I take two steps past it then jump, I always land on it every single time.
I absolutely love this. The only thing I'd say is that for the herdles, sometimes I'd trip when trying to make a jump, even though I press enter in rhythm and before pressing another shift button. Weirdly, long jump does not have this issue.
