What is Escape Rush?
Blast your way out of a space base as scroll speed climbs without limit. Collect weapon pickups, dodge walls and enemies, and survive as long as possible. Each second makes it harder.

Auto-fire is on by default — toggle with the FIRE button.
Collect Red, Blue, and Green pickups to change weapons.
Red fires twin bombs that explode on impact.
Blue fires a continuous laser beam straight ahead.
Green fires a wide 5-way spread shot.
