Aim for pad A on your first descent. Short burns save fuel.

← / A and → / D rotate · Space / ↑ / W thrust · P / Esc pause.
Touch down upright within 10°, below 5 m/s vertically and 3 m/s sideways. Smaller pads earn more points.

How to stick the landing

Your engine pushes in the direction the lander points. Tilt and burn to move sideways; tilt the other way and burn to stop drifting. Without thrust, momentum carries you on.

Start slowing down before you get close to the surface. Make short burns, watch both speed readouts, and turn upright before the feet touch the pad. The camera zooms in automatically on approach.

Pad A pays 1×, B pays 2×, and the small C pad pays 4×. Perfect landings earn double base points; spare fuel adds a bonus. Each successful landing opens a tighter sector. You have three ships, each with a fresh fuel tank.

An original tribute to the classic lunar-landing arcade game.
