Plummet (itch) (Autolycus)

A short game for LowRezJam2021 using the theme "Gravity is the Enemy".

Earth is crumbling. Few humans like yourself remain - safe on research stations floating high above the uninhabitable planet. At least, you were safe, before a stray chunk of stone rocketed directly into your station's fuel tank.

Now you're on a one-way trip down to what's left of Earth's surface, with nothing to stop you but its rising debris.

Will you make it back to Earth? Or will you float ever upward pasted on the face of some rubble?

SPACE to start the game and advance text.
ARROW KEYS to dodge Earth's debris.
