Motion sickness is not an adequate explanation, despite appearing at face value more explanatory than quantum superposition of electrons (humans are not electrons), mystic bilocation (only for sancteous superstition), the rubber hand illusion (whence a rubber eye?), and any number of other useless inquiries.

Oh, hello there, welcome. I see you’ve found the Maze Without Walls.
Stay awhile, hang your coat on the tree. Take a look around.
Version 1.0
(2024)
The first part of a series of surreal adventures within the Labyrinth.
A lengthy narrative, and highly replayable, with five main locations manifesting differently depending on the order encountered, as well as four unique companion characters you can choose to have accompany you—or else go alone. Many paths lead to one ending (...or are there more?).
Inspired by dreams, reality, language, and too many other things to enumerate.
What will you find in the architecture of the maze?
