Lander X

You control a small, triangular lander. Your job is to guide it down to a flat platform on a planetary surface. The left and right arrow keys rotate the craft, while the up key fires the main thruster. Gravity constantly pulls you downward, so you have to manage your descent speed carefully. A successful landing requires a gentle touch; coming in too fast means you crash. The game has a deliberate, tense pace. You spend a lot of time hovering, making small adjustments to your angle and thrust, trying to find that perfect balance. It feels like a careful negotiation with physics, a quiet test of patience and control.
