Cavatus: A Retro-Inspired Cave Flyer with Modern Physics

The war against Professor Zor is over, but victory came at a devastating cost. Technologies are shattered, leaving only a handful of antique flying machines operational. But a chilling possibility remains: Professor Zor could still be alive, plotting another war. Your mission: prevent this resurgence!

Take on the role of a skilled pilot venturing into a vast and forgotten cave system. Pilot historical airplanes and airships in this thrilling side-scrolling adventure game.

Resources are scarce. Fuel is limited, and your aircraft is fragile. Armed with only basic weaponry, success seems improbable but not impossible. Face progressively challenging levels and formidable bosses that will test your piloting prowess and weapon proficiency. This challenging arcade game will push you to your limits!

Survive by mastering skillful flight, avoiding the cave floor at all costs, and strategically refueling at airports. Scavenge for essential upgrades: machine guns, bombs, protective shields, and extended weapon range. Secure these upgrades at the airport to improve your chances of making it to the next checkpoint.

Key Features:

Unique Physics-Based Gameplay: Cavatus isn't your average side-scroller. Experience a 3D world where physics reign supreme. Gravity and lift forces realistically affect your aircraft. Planes drift, glide, and even crash realistically based on your speed and maneuvers. Master the art of flight to survive!

Infinite Lives & Checkpoint System: Unlike classic arcade games, Cavatus offers infinite lives and a modern checkpoint system. Successfully landing at an airport after completing a mission saves your progress automatically, allowing you to respawn and continue your challenging journey.

Score-Based Arcade Action: Fuel your competitive spirit and earn points for every kill, collected item, and swiftly completed mission. Challenge yourself to achieve high scores and compete against your own best performances.

A Fleet of Historical Aircraft:

Master a diverse range of vintage flying machines, each with distinct characteristics.

Biplane: Agile, fuel-efficient, and equipped with light weaponry. A great starting point for mastering the basics of cave flying.

Airship: Slow but capable of flying backward and gliding gracefully. Armed with bombs only, and extremely vulnerable. A unique and unconventional choice but can't land at airports.

Fighter: Fast, fuel-hungry, and heavily armed. Designed for aggressive close combat and quick strikes.

Bomber: Packing an immense arsenal, this aircraft is devastatingly powerful but slow and unwieldy. A powerful choice for taking out larger enemies, better used in a straight line.

Jet: Incredibly fast, fuel-guzzling, and armed to the teeth. The ultimate flying machine for those who prioritize speed and firepower.
