Thanks for playing and that is a very good read on the game. The first moon that you see when you launch is the "tutorial" moon. You will need to have at least 1 scrap to activate your shield. It should last for 4 seconds. Not letting the player know that the shield will use one scrap or requires one scrap to active is a design flaw on my end. Really apricate you playing and hope you give it another go. You can also collect scrap by shooting asteroids. Fly to first moon with at least 1 scrap. Use the shield to get through the hazard zone and talk to the stranded spark. The rest should fall in line....

You can't make it through the maze moon with the shield. You need to unlock the rover for that moon, same with the checkerboard moon, you need the jetpack. The builder moon you need to unlock the builder. The small moon that is directly in front of the ship when you launch from the planet is the moon you must do first. Use the shield to get through it, should take 2 seconds to walk to the next spark. You can see a shield hint in the screenshots on the page for the small moon. Each moon was supposed to be only solved with one type of tool.
