About this game

Jupiter Lander challenges you to use thrusters to land a spaceship safely on Jupiter. Monitor fuel consumption and speed readings to control your descent and choose among three landing pads with different difficulty levels.

The easiest pad doubles your score, while the hardest multiplies it by 10, offering greater rewards for more demanding landings.
