Instructions

==============================================
SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS IN-GAME, ADVANCED ONES HERE!
==============================================
The objective of the game is to slow down and land on the platform.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can press the stop sign to pause, you won't have to restart.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two control modes (switch using M):

Mode A is the realistic one, in which you turn and fire your engine to gain velocity in the direction you're pointing.
Press E to toggle automatic stabilization.
WARNING: Your craft will keep spinning if you do this.

Mode B is the easy one. Your spacecraft can't turn but you can use the thrusters to gain lateral speed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your thrusters use monopropellant, the main engine uses engine fuel. Letting fuel run out has obvious effects.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press H to get a hint for the current level!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
R resets level. Holding R restarts the whole game.
Note: Resetting while on the intro screen deletes your records!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below the fuel levels, there's a timer showing a countdown to the fastest level time (click the letters to change which one shows up)

The best global time (G.T) only applies to mode A!
The best personal time (P.T) applies to both modes.
If you haven't completed a level yet, PT will show a timer.
