Lander Rescue Mission

Coded in Single Scoop Web Code Editor 🤓

Lander Rescue Mission pays homage to the golden age of arcade games by fusing the delicate, physics-based flight mechanics of Atari's *Lunar Lander* (1979) with the rescue-focused gameplay of Broderbund's *Choplifter* (1982). Success relies on mastering inertia; conserve your fuel by using short, controlled thrusts rather than holding the button down, and remember that gravity is constantly pulling you towards the terrain. Your primary goal is not just to land safely, but to locate and retrieve stranded personnel. A smart strategy is to scout the area for blue rescue pads first, pick up survivors, and only then head for the green drop-off zones or yellow refueling stations. Keep an eye on your velocity indicators, landing too hard will result in a crash, ending your mission instantly.
