Incomplete but gives general idea. It's about 8 hours work due to RealLife(tm) intervening so it's more "tech demo" than game/compo entry. All feedback *really* welcome (or ping on @Arakade). Worth taking further?
So, that said...
You are performing laparoscopic surgery (using an endoscope) to excise (remove) a life-threatening cancerous tumour from this patient. You must remove as much tumour as possible while damaging as minimal healthy tissue. You will (would be in finished version) scored on surgical outcome -- least damage to patient through minimal back-and-forth of endoscope, minimization of healthy tissue removed and, most importantly, removing *all* of the cancerous tissue. Failure to remove some can cause metastasis (spreading of infection to other parts of the body).
Aim with mouse, move forward and back with up/down or w/s fire laser with left click. ESCAPE to exit.
This is built with Unity3D, TerraVol (which I hadn't used before!), Livity (also not used before) and much sweat and silent swearing ;-)

<spoiler alert> Enderscope's Game! Playing this game, in the finished version, the final rounds has you unknowingly treating live patients! ;-) </spoiler>
UPDATE 1: Added extra ports and fixed shader.
UPDATE 2: Notes updated to remove web build and mention time & feedback.
