About Lunar Lander
Lunar Lander strips flight down to the two forces that matter: gravity pulling you down, and a thruster fighting back. Rotate to aim your burn, tap the throttle to fight the fall, and watch your fuel gauge shrink with every second of thrust. The moonscape below is jagged rock except for a handful of flat pads, and the narrower the pad, the bigger the payout — a wide beginner pad might pay even money, while a sliver of flat ground barely wider than your legs can pay five times over. The tactical moment comes every descent: do you cut the throttle early to save fuel for a risky narrow pad further along, or play it safe and bank a guaranteed landing before your gauge hits empty? Crash and you simply retry the same patch of terrain with a full tank; land clean and gravity gets a little heavier, the wind gusts a little stronger, and the fuel a little stingier on the next zone. It's built for players who like precision timing and score-chasing over reflex action, and for anyone nostalgic for the vector-line arcade landers of old.

How to play Lunar Lander
Rotate your ship left and right, then thrust to slow your fall and steer toward one of the flat landing pads scattered across the jagged terrain. A safe landing needs both a gentle speed and a near-upright angle when you touch down — hit a pad too fast, too tilted, or miss the pads entirely and you crash and retry the zone with a refilled tank. Land safely and your remaining fuel is multiplied by that pad's score value before you move on to a harder zone.
Controls
Desktop: Arrow keys or A/D to rotate, Up arrow, W, or Space to thrust. Touch: rotate buttons in the bottom-left corner, the THRUST button in the bottom-right.
Tips & tricks
- Watch the VX and VY readouts, not just the picture — they turn green the instant your speed is actually safe to land, which is easier to judge than eyeballing the descent.
- Cut your rotation back to level well before you reach a pad; correcting a hard tilt at the last second burns fuel fast and often overshoots into a crash.
- Narrow pads pay 3x to 5x, but they demand near-zero horizontal drift — cancel sideways speed early rather than trying to nudge onto a sliver of pad at the last moment.
- Fuel gets stingier every zone, so if you're running low, take the first wide pad you can reach safely rather than gambling on a distant multiplier.
