Hold anywhere on the screen to fire your thruster. Let go and you fall.
While holding, slide your finger left or right of the ship to lean that way. On a keyboard, Up or Space burns straight and Left or Right burn while leaning.
Fuel is limited and every second of burn uses it, so coast whenever you can. Each landing tops you up.
Touch down gently: slow, upright and fully on the pad. The legs glow green when you are safe, amber when it is marginal and red when it is too hot.
Smaller pads pay more, from x1 up to x5. Soft, centred landings and spare fuel add bonus points, and back-to-back perfect landings build a streak bonus.
A crash costs a hull and puts you back on the last pad you landed on. Classic and Daily give you 3 hulls.
Rush is a 75 second clock: every landing adds 4 seconds and every crash costs 8. Daily is the same course for every pilot today.
OPTIONS changes mode, sound and your ship, and shows the leaderboards, your trophies and bug reports.
