I’ve had to finish up some work – and in fact, still have some – but I really want to compete! I’ve started over 24 hrs late, not sure if I’ll be submitting for ld or just going for the jam.

I tried my hand at the last mini; I went down in flames. Mostly because of real life bs but I realize even if I had the whole weekend, my plans just weren’t simple enough.

This time around, it’s gonna be simple, simple, simple!  I’m using SDL and Visual Studio 2005.

My game is called Escape Velocity. And yes, I thought of the name before anything else .

You play the role of an interstellar delivery boy. However, the company you work for is so freaking cheap that you’re not even given enough fuel for a round trip! You’ll have to use the gravity of Stars and planets to slingshot your way through space – without crashing or flying off into the void. The faster you make your delivery and the less fuel you use, the better your score.
