Story

Your spaceship got stuck in a minefield and your engines are down! The only thing you have left is your crew and the on-board cannon. Using Newton's third law you can move the ship around by launching you crew members in the opposite direction. They all have personal teleporters, so they will come back eventually, but firing your crew outside in a mine field might not be the best idea. How many crew members will you launch outside and sacrifice in order to dodge the mines?

Controls

- Use the mouse to aim.
- Hold down mouse to charge cannon.
- Release mouse to fire cannon.

How To Play

- Don't get hit by mines, dodge them or use your crew as shields.
- Getting hit means you lose three crew members.
- Don't lose your entire crew, you won't have anything left to launch.
- The number of crew members left is in the top left.
- Survive as long as possible.
- Post your highscore below!
