Game: CAVE RUNNER

(Left-click the screen to activate your keyboard)

This game is designed to be accessible for blind players using text-to-speech, but it is not fully compatible with screen readers. Headphones recommended!

INSTRUCTIONS

  • You control a square that moves automatically.

  • It starts moving right and switches direction when it hits a wall.

  • There are multiple floors with coins on each. Reach the bottom quickly.

CONTROLS

  • When you hear a “tut” sound, you’ve reached a hole:

    • Up Arrow = continue on the same floor

    • Down Arrow = drop to the floor below

GAMEPLAY

  • Detect metal objects on the floor below. Coins guide you.

  • Spikes end the game instantly.

  • Some paths are dead ends.

VISIBILITY SETTINGS

  • Z = show detected/touched objects

  • X = dark mode (only player visible)

  • C = cheat mode (see full level)

  • - / + = adjust how things stand out (colour and transparency)

LEVEL SELECT

  • 1–9 = practice any level (progress resets)

  • 1 = start from the beginning

  • Progress saves when the next level loads

RANKS

  • There are four ranks. The highest rank can only be earned by finishing the entire game in under 5 minutes— you can’t collect all coins and escape that fast.
