I built a SpaceX-inspired Mechazilla Rocket Booster Catching Simulator Game!
I know the game's name is a mouthful but hear me out.
Ever since I saw SpaceX test the Mechazilla in October 2024, I have been obsessed with it.
As a tribute to their great work, I built this super simple Mechazilla simulator.
The game is very intuitive. You must align the Falcon Super Heavy booster using the arrow keys and align it with the red square to catch it using the spacebar. 🫴

I'd love for you to try it. Here is the link: https://vidursaini.github.io/spaceX-falcon-mechazilla/
Also, since Elon Musk said, "Rockets are tricky. You’re trying to control an explosion that’s powerful enough to leave Earth."
I added random winds. You must maneuver the rocket booster considering the wind to land it safely.
This is quite unreal; you should try it.
EDIT: I have now implemented a leaderboard so we can compete against each other
