Old old mac game

Does anyone remember a game called Spelunks? To my memory it was released by Cyan, involved running around in a system of caves and an ant-eater-like fellow named Dr. Spelunk. Anyone else remember this game or know if there's an edition out for the more recent mac systems?

I used to have an apple computer years ,and years ago. it was the first one i ever had i think it was around 81-83. there were a couple of games that i really liked and i was wondering if anyone remembered them and or knew how i could find out how to get them. they were: 1) a space game....you were in the cap. on the launch pad and you went through the preflight , count down lift off and had to do what the astronots had to do and after (if you made it) you got into space you headed to the moon and the lem went down to the surface( you were in it) and had to control it. you then blasted off the surface had to dock with the ship transfere back head to earth and if you got this far now you had to reenter and land safely. the screen and sound was really sort of real.
the other one was a ....i don't know what you would call it but you were in a lab and had to get into a sub and go out and save an underwater lab from sea creatures.( you had to type in everything you did to do it EX.walk to the phone. pick up reciver hang up reciver.go to door open door. go to hatch open hatch climb dowm ladder close hatch........etc.etc.etc. if you forgot something it would not work like if you are in the sub and you forgot to close the hatch and you dove water would come pouring in.
I believe the name of the company was "INFOCOM" at least that is what is stuck in my mind but i can't find them or at least the right one.
thanks for any help you can give me.
I hope more people look at this section than 4

Bill,

get over to the macintosh garden (use google), which deals in macinotsh abandonware, to see if anyone knows about your game.

Infocom is the right company name, I suspect your game was called PlanetFall. I have about 40 of these Infocom adventures on floppy and CD, most will be available at the macintosh garden. If yours isn't there, I'm sure I can upload it.
