Description of your game.
A procedural arcade hopper about a John Doe just trying to commute to the office after moving far away to work remotely and suddenly being called back into office. In times like this, Mr.Doe will just have to push forwards. At least somebody's left a trail of muffins along the way, they'll be sure to bring colour back into your world!

A fun game! The theme of commuting to the office is amusing, and collecting muffins for energy was a fun idea! I liked being able to slide forward (by pressing the down key), as it was a quick way to get across roads. Overall the controls were very easy to use.
One thing I found is that sometimes, even though it didn't look like the car hit me, I would fail anyway, which was a little confusing.
Altogether a great submission and I had fun playing! :)
Fun game! Mechanically simple and re-playable as a result. I liked the simple visuals, and the muffin looked pretty damn tasty. Nice animation with the world dropping away on failure. A+ would slide again!
