Afterburn

AFTERBURN : an endless synthwave rocket-lander. Fire your twin thrusters, fight real physics, and climb as high as your fuel and your nerve allow. Every landing pad is smaller and farther than the last — and the higher you climb, the more the sky around you changes, from sea-level clouds to the edge of deep space. HOW TO PLAY Tap left or right to fire that thruster. Balance both to climb straight up, or favor one side to steer. Come in too fast, too tilted, or on your side, and you'll crash. Touch down slow and upright, and you'll stick the landing, bank points, and refuel for the next leg of the climb. REAL PHYSICS, NOT SCRIPTED FLIGHT Your rocket is a real physics body — it tips, drifts, and bounces the way an actual craft would. Nothing is faked: every landing, every crash, every wobble comes out of the simulation, not an animation. AN ENDLESS, ESCALATING CLIMB Pads shrink and spread out the higher you go. Past a certain height, they start drifting — side to side, then in slow circles — so the target you're aiming for is a moving one. Fuel is generous but not infinite: land clean to refuel, or run dry and coast the rest of the way up on momentum alone. A SKY THAT KEEPS CHANGING Climb from parallax clouds and distant mountains, past a synthwave sun on the horizon, into a starfield scattered with comets, drifting planets, and a distant galaxy. The whole backdrop is one continuous journey, not a repeating loop. COMPETE ON THE LEADERBOARD Every run submits a score built from how many pads you cleared and how much fuel you banked along the way. Climb the leaderboard and see how your best run stacks up. Simple controls. Real physics. No ceiling. How high can you fly?
