Ok, my lunar lander clone has reached a "core game loop" state. Meaning, I consider it fun to play and approachable-enough by motivated people that they can give me feedback.

So, if you& #39;re into weird old school games, I& #39;d love to hear what you think.

Despite what you might think, I& #39;m pretty happy with the current graphics. I think the simplicity is a feature, at least for the kind of game I& #39;m building here. And not just because it& #39;s more performant or more "retro".
If you want a soundtrack, I highly recommend playing http://somafm.com/missioncontrol/ ">https://somafm.com/missionco... in the background. The game itself has no sound.
Controls - WSAD for up-down-left-right thrusters. Q and E for left & right rotation.
There is no menu or pause screen. The game just plays immediately, and after death it restarts.

Resizing - if you change your browser size (like if you go full screen), you have to refresh (F5 / Cmd-R).

Only for laptops and desktops, no mobile support.
Alright, here you go: https://filiph.github.io/lunar_lander/ .
