A downloadable game

SpaceTaxi is an exploration based game where you use your knowledge of physics and orbits to transport passengers as fast as possible.

It's harder than it looks.

Use your thrusters to launchyourself, mini-map and directional arrows to navigate, and your knowledge of physics and the solar system to cross the solar system in a reasonable time.

Hugely inspired by the Crazy Taxi saga, the exploration of Outer Wilds, and the relative accuracy and teaching aspects of Kerbal Space Program.

Controls:

     Mostly shown in game

         IMPORTANT:

         [R] to reset rotation of ship (relative to closest planet)

         [TAB] to view Gravity field lines.

         [L] to enter landing mode, which makes movement much slower.


Built in 36 hours for the UF Swamphacks 8 Game Jam
