How the game works

The pointer action is the core control: click or tap to move and fire. Watch the ship’s resulting position as well as the direction of the shot.

A decision to watch

Asteroids approach as an ongoing obstacle, so a click that fires toward one can also change where the ship will meet the next. Use a short attempt to learn that relationship.

Try a first session

The game was published for the js13k competition. Its public description documents the core input but does not establish a transferable campaign save.

BEFORE YOU CLOSE THE TAB

What happens to your progress?

A portable save or mid-run resume is not established by the reviewed instructions. Check the game’s own menu before clearing its browser data.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before the next click.

Can I move without firing?

The public description presents clicking or tapping as a combined movement-and-fire action; it does not document a separate movement input.

What should I watch after a click?

The ship’s new position matters as well as the shot, because asteroids continue approaching.
