Substantial parts of the game are now playable. A basic probe can be launched with specified speed and direction, and you can watch its progress as it coasts through the star system.

It's starting to look really good, too. I'm trying to strike a balance between implementing features and keeping the production values up consistently.

Also, I'm having a blast doing this. This could have a lot of educational potential -- I'm learning heaps about rocket propulsion and orbital mechanics!
