Wear the Helmet

Wear the Helmet is a 2D endless-runner game about riding a scooter down a long and dangerous road using only the keyboard. You have a choice between the Up and Down Arrow Keys or W and S which will move the scooter up or down one lane respectively. There are only three lanes to navigate between and the rider will keep moving from left to right. The goal is to ride as long and as far as you can. If you hit any obstacle, you'll instantly crash and the run will end wherever the rider lands.

Before you start, you can choose whether the rider will wear a helmet or not. After that, the driver will start riding. The scooter will move at a constant pace down the road with the distance traveled being shown in the top right corner of the screen. As he rides down the road, he'll encounter various obstacles such as barricades, roadblocks, and open sewer holes. They can spawn in any arrangement across any of the three lanes and the rider simply has to avoid them. If the rider hits an obstacle, they'll be launched forward from the scooter and will either stop where they land (no helmet) or bounce for a bit (yes helmet).

As a casual endless-runner, you just need to make slight movements now and then. The obstacles are stationary and the rider won't gain any speed, so you just need to avoid dangers as they come. Look ahead to determine the best combination of movements.
