Graphics: you're using too many raw colours, the text is hard to read when blue, and there's plenty of pretty colour schemes you can get by not sticking to RGB. RGB shows you're lazy. The intro was kinda pointless and weird, seems like you spent more time on that than the actual game. Instructions are way too long. The gameplay though is interesting but I don't see how it relates to 10 seconds that much."},{"author_name":"lambda_express","author_uid":"24966","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 6:17am","epoch":1377497520,"text":"They just don't make enough lander games.

If for some reason it does not work, try the Java version.\r\n\r\nIn this turn based simulation game, you must bring the probe lander safely to the ground before your 10 seconds of fuel run out.\r\n\r\nEach turn represents 1 second. You can tell where your lander will go next turn by looking at the \"ghosts\". The first represents where your lander will be in 1 second at the current engine power. The second represents where your lander will be in 2 seconds if you cut power after 1 second.\r\n\r\nDue to shoddy lander construction, subsystems will fail as the lander descends. There is a display in the center right of the screen indicating the current status of your systems. If the text is yellow, the system is half damaged. Red means fully damaged. Mousing over a subsystem will tell you what will happen if it is damaged.\r\n\r\nThere are colored markers pointing at the subsystems, representing your ground crew's attention on that system. If a crewmember is monitoring a system, it will take no more damage, and they will repair it over time. To move a crewmember, click on their marker and click on the system you want them to monitor.\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nWASD\/Cursor Keys - Control thrust\r\nShift + Thrust Control - Minor thrust adjustments\r\nX - Stop all thrust\r\nEnter - End turn\r\nH - View help screen.\r\n\r\nTips:\r\n- You need to be going below 6 m\/s for a perfect landing.\r\n- Some subsystems are more important than others.\r\n- The estimated landing speed is only an estimate.","title":"Flameout"}
