About This Game

You play as subject ID #0076101, a synthetic creation of sentient water made by a tyrannical A.I. that runs the facility. Your purpose is testing of a chemical compound known as AN-G3L, enhancing your natural speed and reflexes while performing different tasks under its influence. During standard testing an error occurs and you are released unexpectedly into the basement where you must run, jump, climb and fight your way thru each floor for your freedom using the tools found along the way.

Running Water lets you explore each floor as you make your escape thru its puzzles while finding precious resources, power ups and technology to survive your battles against drones or even the facility layout itself. But beware, no subject is allowed to leave alive. Can you survive as a runner?
