Just in case you weren't aware, the Game Grumps played your game a li'l while back:
Let's Find Larry | Game Grumps

[SPOILER WARNING!]

Okay, so first off: Not the dev. 

But, have a thought that might explain it: While the opening made it seem like Findo was more of a Tutorial NPC, I personally believe he was actually the Player Character. Soooo... those final scenes might explain it?

Is this a skin or a character?
If it's a skin, which character is it for?

Hey, my dood! So I'm an artist / game designer & I think this character concept has some promise.

If you're still around & interested in finishing the mod up, I'd be willing to do the pixel art, maybe help flesh out the missing power-ups?

Lemme know.
