Orbital Garbage Collector
About
The goal of this game is to destroy as much space debris as possible.
Move close to some debris. Grab it. Change its orbit such that it will burn up in Earth's atmosphere. Let it go. Accelerate before you burn up yourself. Try to destroy as much debris as possible.
Navigating space in low orbit is extremely difficult, so being able to remove even one piece of debris is already quite an accomplishment.
Controls
- Left click: Capture the mouse cursor so you can move the camera with your mouse. While captured, selects the object you're looking at or deselects if you're not looking at an object.
- WASD/Arrow keys: Accelerate forward, backward, left and right.
- Space/Shift: Accelerate up/down.
- C: Synchronize speed with selected object.
- G/E: Grab or drop the selected object. The border will turn yellow when within grabbing range (<25km) and turn green when the object is grabbed. Releasing an object will also deselect it.
- F11/Alt+Enter: Toggle full screen.
- Right mouse button/Escape: Release mouse cursor.
