Raccoocket

The yard is short on everything except junk

Xiao Huan the raccoon lives in the east-side scrapyard and wants to see the moon. All he has is junk. So: stack it into a rocket, strap him to the top, and press Launch.


Cola with a Mentos, a fistful of sparklers, a pressure cooker, a toilet that flushes upwards, a jet engine from the scrap heap, a leaking reactor, a Saturn V first stage. Every part pushes, burns, weighs and breaks in its own way. Get the stack right and he punches through the clouds. Get it wrong and something gets crushed, something blows up, and Xiao Huan goes for a short, loud trip.

Features

• 80+ pieces of junk to stack, hang on the sides and bolt together: thrusters, separation rings, fins, nose cones, oxygen tanks, hot glue, balloons and a goldfish bowl helmet.
  
• Physics that tells you what went wrong: parts carry loads and get crushed, thrusters wobble and explode, rockets tumble, heat walls burn the top off. The build screen shows what will happen and what would fix it.

• A trip to 5,000 km: past the clouds, the aurora and the satellites, the Moon, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, the Kuiper belt, the edge of the solar system, a black hole and Andromeda.
  
• Something new in every band of the sky: junk drifting overhead, meteors, the radiation belt, asteroid fields, the solar wind, ice, interstellar dust. Each one has its own fix.

• Endless mode: every launch costs money, height pays it back, and the scrapyard shelf opens up tier by tier as your record climbs.
  
• 12 challenge levels, each with one odd rule: fly through hoops, carry a crate of eggs without cracking one, drop a spent stage onto a mattress, get off the ground with only three parts. Three stars and a leaderboard for every level, and trophies and outfits for clearing them.
  
• 100+ achievements, plenty of them for doing something gloriously stupid. Many unlock outfits for Xiao Huan or change the junkyard, and there is a world leaderboard for endless records.
  
• Share codes: send your rocket to a friend, or copy theirs.
