SPACE.EXE

Physics-Based Space Puzzle Game | Game Jam Project

A final probe must escape an unstable star system. As a ground-based engineer, the player must place planets in a 2D space and use their gravity to design the probe's trajectory, guiding it toward its destination.

SPACE.EXE is a physics-based puzzle game built around manipulating gravitational forces and orbital trajectories through planetary placement.

This project was developed as part of the 3rd KRAFTON Game Tech Lab game jam, using a custom-built engine with C++ and DirectX 11 instead of a commercial game engine.
