Addictive little browser game involving gravity

Retroburn captures the satisfying tug-and-thrust of old gravity-ship games: Newtonian gravity, atmospheric drag, and a neat risk/reward twist where using thrust eats your score. It's impressive how much is packed into a ~1.2k-line single-file HTML app (<50KB): procedural planets, tight keyboard controls, and quick sessions make it an addictive proof-of-concept rather than a platform-shifting release.
