Space Taxi

Description

Space Taxi is a game where the player needs to pilot a "space taxi" on some remote planet. The player must take off from a landing pad, fly up and maneuver over a mountain, and land on a landing pad on the other side. The planet is surrounded by a radiation dome, and flying above this dome leads to instant death via radiation poisoning.

The "taxi" starts with 70 units of oxygen and 80 units of fuel. The action is turn-based. In each turn, the player decides how much fuel to use for horizontal thrust, and how much for vertical thrust. The ship then flies according to the thrust applied, with gravity also exerting a force. Each turn uses up 5 seconds of oxygen. If the player runs out of oxygen or crashes into the ground or the mountain, they also die.
