As we sit in the RPS chatroom, picking through each day’s new selection of games in which you play a coma patient, something simple, explosive, videogamey can feel like a breath of fresh air. Cavern Kings is a forced-descent infinite action platformer inspired by Super Crate Box and Risk of Rain, in which there are spinning blades to dodge, giant worms to defeat, and a destructible floor to tunnel into deeper and deeper.
There’s a trailer below that appropriately sells its simple charms, and a download link for a public beta. It’s on Kickstarter too, though already almost halfway towards its minor $2,500 goal.
