How it feels

A frantic, physics-based scramble where you clumsily haul loot from hostile planets while being swarmed by replicating robot bugs.

What players say

Players describe it as a modern take on Lunar Lander with physics-based grappling and resource logistics. Getting heavy objects to the mothership is rewarding. Controls feel awkward at first but clicks quickly. A few warn about random fuel placement making some runs unwinnable.
