Space Dash_

I built Space Dash in 2020 while studying computer science at Washington & Lee. I coded the original in Python with pygame and drew all of the artwork myself. You fly a rocket from Mars, past the Moon and Saturn, and back home to Earth.

In 2026 I upgraded it with AI: I rebuilt it to run in the browser, then added shooting, tighter controls, randomized levels, and a best time to beat. The artwork is still the 2020 original.

Controls: ↑ ↓ to steer, Space to fire, P to pause. On a phone, use the on-screen buttons.
