**No Ads or micro-transactions, just fun** Forest Runner is a 3D endless procedurally-generated runner game where you control a character who runs through a forest full of hurdles. You can use three different abilities to overcome the obstacles: double jump, clock slow down, and small pill. Double jump lets you leap higher and farther, clock slow down slows down time and makes the hurdles easier to dodge, and small pill shrinks you to fit under low barriers. You can collect coins along the way and use them to upgrade your abilities. The game gets faster and harder as you run, so you have to be quick and agile. How far can you run into the forest?
