Use inertia to your advantage and rescue space-people before oxygen runs out.  
Made for 20 Second Game Jam.

Challenges:

1. Keep the accelerator pressed down throughout a round.
2. Use only either left or right turn throughout a round.

It is not necessary to attempt both the challenges at the same time, but I won't stop you from trying.

One of the games I enjoyed in the 20 second jam. Might just be me, but I think it would have been better if there were boosters and exhaust particles for the ship, and a different sprite for when the spacemen die.

This might be the best game of the Jam.
Two small criticisms, I wish S was a brake or something. The rocks are kinda hard to see sometimes.


Also i would to love to look at your script that controls the spaceship physics.

Hi! Thank you so much for playing this game and for the feedback :D 

I have uploaded the player control script on github. I may take it down after a few days though.

Actually addicting and fun to learn the muscle memory to control the craft! Cool game
