Krumbles the Cookie

A rogue lite where you play as a sentient chocolate chip cookie.  Emerge from the baking pan and escape from the kitchen before you are eaten by hungry critters or the owner comes back and prevents you from enjoying your newfound freedom.   You cannot jump because well - you are a cookie.  Your life is restricted to mostly two dimensions  If you don't first succeed, try, try, again!  The game rewards you for retrying after death as you become another of the dozen cookies that were baked.  You receive a slight movement buff after dying and the world does not reset.  Plot your course and try to make your way out!
