This is fantastic! I wonder if anyone has made an adaptation based on Perseverance's landing with the sky crane maneuver.
These are such a breath of fresh air with all of the crazy stuff going on in the world right now. Very good stuff.
I found a perfect solution to the Lunar Lander. The impact velocity is tiny 0.17 mph. And a lot of remaining fuel. Look:

PERFECT LANDING !-(LUCKY)
jeez louise, playing Lunar Lander used to drive me nuts! Very adult and sophisticated game.
