Unique take!
Great concept great sim. Thank you for keeping it updated for latest ios!
Great game
Played it many years ago on programmable calculator, and it was slow and boring. This one is the same physics, but it's realtime - and realtime changes game perception completely! Just cannot stop playing it for many days :-)
Simplicity-to-entertainment ratio: infinite
This game has more replay value than any game I've played before. Not it only does it demonstrate the physics of orbital flight, it also illustrates the need for careful and considered expenditure of fuel.
If I was trapped on a desert island with one game, this would be it.
I'd suggest
* Adding a + / - to the time slider. Often just 2x or 3x is desired and having to either momentarily jump to 10x while trying to use the slider is problematic, and having to pause first to avoid this jump is a pain.
* Offering faster time-advance than 60x. sometimes it's fun to watch the lander zip around if you've botched the docking.
* Option to set the orbit trail length.
* Projected path option.
* A guide. Some things I didn't understand at first, but had to figure out, and some things I still don't understand.

Lander
This landing simulator is challenging in a 2d format, docking of space station is kinda hard and landing back on the moon at zero degrees also kinda hard
Realistic
Cool
Good
I realy like it and its very fun to play (i keep messing with it on settings)
Amazing
This is an amazing lunar simulator for us Kerbal folks! I would like some more fancy calculations, but for a 2-D orbiter, I have what I need. Excellent work guys.
Nice
Great way to get a feel for vector flight.
Nice cerebral workout
Ok...this isn't an action thriller...but it is a great piece of entertainment to develop patience. Very simple...which is part of the attraction. I really like it...although once you've gone up and come down, it is kind of over.
If a new version came out...it would benefit from additional orbit targets (higher or spaced out), some apogee-perigee tracks to achieve, maybe a geo-synchronous altitude to meet...although that would require a rotating planet.
Nice 'old school' classy game. Thank you.

Very realistic simulator
Fun
