I love the lunar lander arcade game, and it seems like that was the inspiration here, but I couldn't figure out where I was meant to reenter. I hit the water and saw "splashdown" once but everywhere else I landed the text was off screen.

But hey, very impressive considering no one worked on it (team size zero 馃槀)

Unfortunately I couldn't figure out the controls for the game were (I tried most keyboard buttons, mouse, and controller). In the end I orbited the planet a few times.

Couldn't really figure out what to do sadly.

In my head all i heard was, Around the world around the world

Worked okay for me besides up and down freezing the game but maybe that's intended. It was a cute riff on lunar lander but I wish there was more to it in some way. I think the directions need a little more feedback because it's strange that up and down seem to freeze the game while left and right work in subtler ways. Cute model of the earth and I like the base idea. Reminds me of The Brazil for Switch.

I like that the Earth is the map, and it's looming in the distance like the Wildcards asked for. Unfortunately none of the buttons I press do anything and the game doesn't explain anything, so I am not really able to experience anything

I tried this game several times. Only got a grey screen when I hit earth. Then I got blue letters on the grey screen. But only for a second. I couldn't read them, as they were there for too short and mostly off screen. Quite mysterious.

I'm sorry, I don't understand the controls. I like that the name is a pun!!
