@Hugh__Mann Haha, I didn't even program it to do that specifically — it just magically works!

WOHOOOOOO I HAVE DONE IT I have successfully managed to lower my pb by 1 minute and 2 seconds. This means I only took on average 18.5 seconds per level. (I spun the booster around and did flips to reduce time)

Reality is catching up with fiction. Today's Starship 7 launch felt like a scene straight out of Gravity.

@bartkmq The game uses ballistics equations to calculate the upwards force needed for the booster to reach zero vertical speed right at Mechazilla's arms. The physics remain consistent across levels, with tweaks to make gameplay engaging, like factoring in horizontal distance.

@AndredAlmeida Fun game, great visuals. May I ask how the thrust level is controlled? The game seems to be physics based but sometimes it feels like the booster is "on rails". Some solutions that seem like they should work don't because fuel running out quicker or too little control authority😅

SpaceX is launching Starship faster than I can get game updates out! 🚀 New content is coming, but for now, I’ve added a small enhancement: the live version tracks your time and catch attempts for each level, plus the total. Can you beat the dev? mechazilla.io

@gd_spy Humm I didn't touch the game physics. I just checked and I think it's exactly the same.

@AndredAlmeida Nice update! I also noticed that the chopsticks seem to be more stable after catching the booster. Previously if the booster landed on the edge of the chopsticks, the chopsticks would bend further, causing the booster to eventually slide off after a while. This no longer happens

@AndredAlmeida I found a bug: if you press the space bar to restart the level when the tower is about to break, the tower may not recover, causing the tower to collapse at the beginning of the level, and you have to wait until it collapses completely before pressing the space bar to restart.

@DriveTeslaca Thanks for the suggestion! Recording a video is a great idea, though I’m a bit concerned it could affect the memory allocated for the game by the browser. But nothing like running some tests to find out!

@AndredAlmeida Suggestion: add a replay option. Just had a spectacular crash that would have been awesome to have as a replay to share on X.

@enes__ky Thanks for the suggestion! The game is fairly small (although difficult to beat) and wasn’t originally designed with that in mind, but I might consider adding more features when Starship 6 launches. That could definitely make sense then.

@AndredAlmeida The game is stuck on 90% loading screen in Chrome. What can I do to fix this?

@astro_sreeraj Made some fixes, it probably works now, but it's difficult to confirm compatibility across all Android devices.
