How to Play
Use the WASD keys or arrow keys to navigate your spacecraft through space. Press SPACE to activate your mining beam when near a resource-rich asteroid or planet. Use E to interact with objects and space stations. Manage your fuel and cargo capacity carefully as you venture further into the cosmos.
Your spacecraft has limited cargo space, so return to space stations regularly to sell your resources and upgrade your equipment. Keep an eye on your fuel gauge and shield integrity to avoid being stranded or destroyed in the depths of space.
