Theme interpretation
Before the Apollo missions, it was considered extremely unlikely or impossible to land on the moon so naturally a Moonshot theme would lead me to create a game that recreates an event that proved doubters wrong and raised the bar for what it considered impossible ever since

I agree with Maz that some indicator as to which thrusters are being fired would be good.
Is the acceleration physically accurate? Like, I understand that acceleration due to gravity does change based off distance but at a scale of hundreds of meters, it really should be constant acceleration, no?
I dunno, it was just weird how I had to use the spacebar much more as I got closer to the moon, when I should have been able to do impulses at the same rate as normal.
I really like the idea.
Some particle-system would be great to indicate wich thruster is active.
Maybe add some challenges/limitations: time limit, limited fuel, limited allowed speed.
Or a random landing site, so that you can't do the same every time.
Super Technical ! Hard to master this. I know i'll play this multiple times to get comfortable.
