Rufus Snackdown

You control Rufus, a creature who needs to dig through soft earth to collect his hidden corndogs. The main objective is to gather them all before a roaming freezer machine catches you. You use the arrow keys to burrow in different directions, carving out tunnels as you go. The spacebar lets you attack, which is useful for breaking through certain blocks or perhaps fending off enemies, though the primary threat is that freezer. If it hits you three times, the game ends. The pace is quick, as the machine patrols the area, forcing you to plan your route and sometimes retreat. It feels like a tense, slightly silly race against a kitchen appliance.
