About Apollo-G: Now

You pilot a small space probe on a flyby through a star system, one world at a time. Thrust is inertial, so the probe keeps drifting after you release the keys, and gravity pulls it off course while you try to line up the camera.

Holding your aim costs limited power, so every correction has a price. Each world gives you a single photo. Fire when range and alignment match and the frame comes out sharp. Fire too early or off target and the gallery gets a weak picture.

A run is short, a few minutes in all. It ends in one of two endings, chosen by how good your photos were across the mission. The look is 8-bit arcade, with pixel graphics and sound generated by code.

The creator wrote it in HTML5 and JavaScript, using Claude models inside the Cursor editor. Touch devices get an on-screen game pad.
