Caldera Express
Mount Kessrel is erupting, and the old ore line is the only way out.
Jump into a runaway minecart and race through three zones of collapsing rail while a wall of molten lava rolls in behind you. Clear lava gaps, duck under falling timbers, stomp slag-golem carts, dodge volcanic bombs, and time your way past erupting geysers. Reach the surface lift at the end of Zone 3 to escape.
Features
- Three hand-built zones, each faster than the last: The Slag Line, Cinder Galleries, Caldera Breakout
- Jump, hold for height, and double jump with a mid-air cart flip
- Duck, brake and push. Braking lets the lava wave catch up, so use it carefully.
- Crumbling track, split high and low rails, oncoming carts, cinder bats, geysers and volcanic bombs
- Collect the L·A·V·A tiles or 100 gems for an extra cart
- Checkpoint lanterns, a results screen with ranks, and a saved best time
Controls
Jump: Space / ↑ / W (hold for higher, press again in mid-air to double jump)
Duck: ↓ / S
Brake / Push: ← / A and → / D
Pause: P / Esc
