Cave Rescue Run: You are on a rescue task; the cave entrance has collapsed, locking you in. Three Explorers are missing, and there are rumours of evil creatures lurking in the cave. Find the Explorers and a new way out before the storm floods the entire cave system.

Fantastic visuals, and fun gameplay. Satisfying to kill enemies, and sufficiently challenging enough teetering on low health. Lots of great little features like the high scores, minimap, lighting etc. 

Enjoyed the surprise of the rising water, and was glad of health pickups, nice work!
