Bank toward the tower
Hold right and throttle together to travel toward the catch arms. Small taps change attitude; long holds build a bank.
Starship recovery / Arcade edition 02
A precision flying game. Bring the ship home across six increasingly demanding approaches.
Find the line. Kill the speed. Make the catch.
Ready when you are. Sound turns on when you start; press M to mute.
Hold right and throttle together to travel toward the catch arms. Small taps change attitude; long holds build a bank.
Bank the other way to cancel sideways drift. Throttle slows your descent. Keep enough fuel for the final approach.
Aim for the cyan catch corridor. Arrive upright with low vertical and sideways speed. Training gives you a wider target and more fuel.
A / D or arrow keys: steer · W / Up / Space: throttle · P: pause · M: sound. All controls also work by touch. Scores and progress are saved on this device.
