Stellar Delusion - LD28 - You Only Get One Planet! by wulfdesign
Original idea was
You Only Get One Planet
Protect it from the Asteroid Threat...
A radial gravity simulator which you can fly around in...
with pretty images from various space agencies...
could only put a dozen hours into it over the weekend...
since it stands unfinished only the asteroid and earth have gravitational interaction with each other
there is currently no 'Win' state.
and asteroid is on a random starting velosity and direction so it may or maynot hit earth.
see

for build notes and credit.
Controls:
Use arrow keys for thrust control...
Escape to restart...
Space to remove Failed Impact alert.
currently you can can only interact with the asteroid by pushing it around.(it's heavy).
if it hits earth...
it could be the end to us all.
Protect us Major Tom...

Suddenly overcome by doubt, I attempt to swing away last second, but I still grace the meteor. Surprised I find that I didn't crash, but rather bounced off the meteor, losing control of my ship in the process. Spinning uncontrollably, I plummeted into the sun, only to find that the sun is actually a portal to a mirrored universe! As luck would have it, my ship bounce into the meteor heading towards this alternate earth, slowing me down to a halt but pushing the meteor just enough to avoid a collision with the alternate earth.
I am welcomed as a hero.
