Plot

- Ground control : Ground control to major Tom.

- Major Tom : hu ?

- Ground control : We've got bad news.

- Major Tom : hu ?

- Ground control : Well… you know… hum… that intern I told you about last week ?

- Major Tom : hu ?

- Ground control : Yeah, that's him. Well, he fucked up. He was assigned to the asteroid detection while you cross the asteroid belt, and… how to say ? He was doing a good job the 1st month, and I didn't watch him that much lately, and this little brat, while he was supposed to monitor the approaching asteroids, spent his time playing to Candy Crush on Facebook and…

- Major Tom : HE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY ABSENCE TO BEAT MY SCORE !?!?!?!?

- Ground control : No… hum… long story short : You are going right into a very dense region of the asteroid belt. And given your speed, there is no way you can avoid it. Actually you can reach this region at any moment.

- Major Tom : hu ?

- Ground control : Yeah, if you are lucky enough to don't hit a huge asteroid you'll still have to face a micrometeoroid rain that will shatter your spaceship.

- Major Tom : So… what's the plan?

- Ground control : You'll have a painful death.

- Major Tom : hu?

- Ground control : One last thing: We just blew a 72 thousand billion dollars mission, and to amortize the costs we had this idea of making a movie about your story. We thought you had your word on this. We approached Ridley Scott, Christopher Nolan and Woody Allen to direct the movie, do you have any preferences?

MICROMETEOROID RAIN HITS THE SPACESHIP

- Computer : Warning! Warning ! Oxygen leak detected. Artificial gravity system damaged.

- Major Tom : Dammit! Where is my space suit?

Concept

The game will involve Box2D. The player will control Major Tom in his jetpack equipped space suit. The aim is to reach the safety spaceship. Each level will be a room of the main spaceship.

Here is an ugly concept screen :

Gameplay

• Control with WAD
  • W : linear impulse with the jetpack
  • A and D : counter-clockwise and clockwise rotation
• No gravity
• No air friction
• Fuel limitation : The longer you press W the more you consume fuel. Use you jetpack wisely to make it to the room exit
• Air limitation : You have to exit the room before you run out of air.

Basically, if you use too much your jetpack to go fast, you'll end up without fuel, but if you go really slowly to save fuel, you won't have enough air. There might be air and fuel supply to pick up in hardest levels.
