A launcher game where you haphazardly command the 1969 space program to get to the moon. Upgrade your ship into a multi-stage Saturn V type, and make a monumental journey.

Inspired in large part by the sacrifices in the NASA launches, such as Apollo 1 where 3 astronauts died - including the guy who might have been the first man on the moon.

Really proud of how the art design came out. So many things just "clicked" without needing to be overthought. I'll add sound after the jam - imagine engine thrusts, a bit of piano music when you reach space, and maybe the music swells when you get to the moon. That would add atmosphere. Haha, atmosphere.

Juicy Menus made with a library I'll be releasing properly very soon. Watch this space. Haha, space. God, I'm tired.
