Use of the limitation
The limitation "Can't stop moving" made me think of a stressful game, where the movement is, what makes it difficult. I chose to make a very fast paced game, with short gameplay loops to enhance this stress factor of the movement. To change it up a little I chose not to go for a basic endless runner and made the 3D map.

Cookies eaten
No cookies...but a heck lot of grilled cheese sandwiches

Really creative game, I had a lot of fun, I didn't realize you could move with the mouse and when I did I came back here to change my rating. I was like "WOOOW". Yeah, great job. You should iterate a bit on the concept and it has the potential to be a popular game :)

Like everyone else, I like how it was open world, mouse sensitivity is a bit fast, but I think that was intentional.

Need more sounds though, good game!

I really like the "open world" concept. I couldn't find more than 1 piece of bread, but I enjoyed gliding around the campus environment!

Hi there! 

Thanks for trying my game :). Sometimes when you fly in a straight line that  can happen.

I love that it's basically an open-world and an endless runner at the same time. The large world is a welcome feature, but the fact that everything is packed so close together feels a bit chaotic, because I never get a chance to plan my movement ahead of time.

Thanks for your reply!  Ya that's actually what I was going for...that the player has to react to what immediately in front of them but that doesn't work too well with collectibles I guess

Ah fair enough, and there also few fixed paths so sometimes the obstacles are a bit awkward, but it was enjoyable nevertheless.
