THE AIM OF THE GAME:

Your goal is to land on the flat pad(s) as soft/smooth/level as possible, while trying not to burn through an abundance of fuel.


The game is very much a work in progress, but its a single file html5 game built entirely with code, no assets used at all, also this entire project was built on my phone, using Spck Editor.


AI DISCLOSURE: DeepSeek was used for assisted coding, Claude did the final syntax error pass to verify it was working correctly
