  • Don't fly into the sun! If you do, your opponent wins.
  • However, your ship has solar panels, so the closer you are to the sun, the more energy you will gain.
  • If you run out of energy, you will not be able to use you thruster.
  • Watch out for random asteroids!

  • Player 1: Left/Right arrow keys to rotate, Up arrow to thrust
  • Player 2: A/D to rotate, W to thrust

Tools:

Awesome!
A bit hard to appreciate the way the ship moves but it's funny x)

Little issue: we can't really see where is the heading direction of the ship.

But fun!
