Ludum Dare 59 - Signal

Given recent events with the success of the  Artemis mission, this was a fun theme to have.

Scenario

This unmanned probe has accidentally been pulled into the midst of an asteroid field. Your mission is remotely navigate it to safety, exit the field, and get it to the marked goal location.

Controls  - All relative to the direction the probe is facing

W - Thrust Forward

S - Thrust Reverse

A - Roll Left

D - Roll Right

Q - Thrust Left (Strafe)

E - Thrust Right (Strafe)

Be aware

Signals take time to travel through the vastness of space. While you're seated comfortably in the control center in Cape Canaveral, this probe is roughly 500,000 km away! Thus it takes around 1.5 seconds for your input signals to reach the probe. Go easy on the controls and try not to over compensate too much.

Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I couldn't add all I wanted. As a result, to play again, you must refresh your browser.
