Paraplegic Character Stars in Game: Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy
Yes, the developer's name is in the game, because he chats with you as you play.

Why I'm posting it here: This game's character has the capabilities of a very strong paraplegic. It's a man sitting in an round-bottom iron cooking pot, climbing a treacherous landscape using only his upper body and the levering power of a very long sledgehammer. The game provides infinite opportunities to get it wrong, and you can't save your progress.
I'm not a gamer, so I may have been looking in the wrong place, but as far as I can tell nobody is talking about this disability angle.
Windows or macOS on STEAM $7.50, iOS $5
