A downloadable game for Windows

---DESCRIPTION---

The theme of the GMTK 2024 Jam was "Built to Scale" so I made a to-scale model of Jupiter and its moons for you to fly around. and its physically accurate! (unless I got my maths wrong). 

You can:

  • Fly with realistic Newtonian physics to different moons
  • Dock to and visit a variety of different space stations
  • Get sucked into Jupiter
  • deliver goods across this semi-dystopian universe.

---CONTROLS---

(out of ship)

  • Press E To interact with NPCs
  • WASD + Space to move

(in ship)

  • W-S pitches
  • A-D yaws
  • Q-E rolls
  • Ctrl brakes
  • scroll wheel changes thrust
  • Space accelerates time
  • Scroll wheel when accelerating time changes the amount of time changed.

ESC to quit (might be broken though) if you cant quit just find a way to die and then you can quit from the death screen lol

---ADDITIONAL NOTE---

I realised the final parts of the game (Landing on Io) can be a bit harder than it probably should be. When at that section of the game please:

  • Approach retrograde (from the left of Jupiter so its going towards you)
  • Give yourself plenty of velocity
  • keep yourself at a good distance away from Io once you've stopped and then slowly approach the station from outside. Io's gravity is strong and can suck you in easily.

Same goes for the next section of the game which I wont spoil. It's certainly not easy but its doable and I have done it several times. Good luck :)

Install instructions

NOTICE - Due to my own mistake, unfortunately I accidentally uploaded a PCK instead of the actual build for this project. Fortunately the 0.1 Build still works correctly and (hopefully please please please) its completely playable from beginning to end on windows.

However, features such as: 

  • Fullscreen
  • Difficulty modes
  • Audio
  • Better ship graphics
  • Trackpad support

Are missing. So keep that in mind! 

I will upload the 0.3 executable once the jam is over.
