Team members
We are a team of 3: Daniel Besalduch Díaz (design), Marina de los Ángeles Ferragut (art) and Toni Mateu (programming).

Software used
Godot.

Use of the limitation
The limitation "Nothing lasts forever" has been used from the kid's perspective and included gameplay-wise as the father figure, who forces the game (and the incredible experience of the kid) to end, and verbalizes the sentence in the end screen. As a kid everything is amazing, but the truth is it won't last forever: just like the Candy Parade. So... grab as much candy as you can while it lasts!

Cookies eaten
We had a few, not so many. I'd say around 10. We had A LOT of other stuff though, like ice-cream sandwiches, jalapenos olives, and such. Good stuff.

Lovely art style! But the kids... those weren't lovely. They only wanted candy and pushed me constantly.

Addictive gameplay and the art style is cool. Had a lot of fun. This would be an awesome concept for a multiplayer game.
The clown is a jerk though :D

Clown is OP! The animation style was great and I loved  dodging dad as long as I could at the end!

That was really fun, great art and I like having to    run away from the dad for a little bit of extra candy.

And I made it my mission to ruin the bully's night

Great work team!

interesting and beautiful game, the theme of the implementation is cool, but the WASD controls don't work for me and that's why my maximum is 18 candies.

Developer

Oh, sorry to hear that. Next time we will set arrow keys as well!

Loved the art and the concept, but hate this clown... Love how it ends, I didn't listen to my dad, of course. Very well done! (It was just a little tricky for me to play though, with my french keyboard and its scattered WASD keys^^)

Developer

Yup, we should have set the movement in arrow keys as well. Sorry about that!

Haha, no problem, I should not have been french, that's all^^

Lovely game! I loved the art style and the voice dubbing! On the first try, the sad clown took all my candy... well, I guess nothing lasts forever... :)

Brilliant presentation! This was a cute little game that managed to tell a good story while incorporating that story into the gameplay. I know many people enjoyed getting candies from parades as a kid, and this game turned that into a fun interactive experience.

I also really liked how the father coming to pick up his kid was not a strict game-over timer, as he had to catch you for the game to end. It added a bit more flavor to the ending of the game.

Overall excellent job!
