Game
Certain colors on the roads indicate special properties upon contact:
- Dark Gray: Ship can't steer left or right. (Called "Slippery" in the game)
- Dark Green: Ship decelerates quickly. (Called "Sticky" in the game)
- Light Green: Ship accelerates quickly. (Called "Boost" in the game)
- Light Red: Ship explodes. It is safe to be on the very edge of a light red square. (Called "Burning" in the game)
- Blue: Refills oxygen and fuel. Several levels have hidden blue tiles that must be reached in order to complete the level. (Called "Supplies" in the game)
The game always ends with a tunnel that ends into space, signifying a win.

Famous quotes containing the word game:
“My first big mistake was made when, in a moment of weakness, I consented to learn the game; for a man who can frankly say “I do not play bridge” is allowed to go over in the corner and run the pianola by himself, while the poor neophyte, no matter how much he may protest that he isn’t “at all a good player, in fact I’m perfectly rotten,” is never believed, but dragged into a game where it is discovered, too late, that he spoke the truth.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“Intelligence and war are games, perhaps the only meaningful games left. If any player becomes too proficient, the game is threatened with termination.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
“I hate that aesthetic game of the eye and the mind, played by these connoisseurs, these mandarins who “appreciate” beauty. What is beauty, anyway? There’s no such thing. I never “appreciate,” any more than I “like.” I love or I hate.”
—Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
