🌌 THE PREMISE

You are stranded in the furthest reaches of deep space. Your ship’s systems are failing, and your fuel is ticking away. The only way home is through a high-velocity Time Warp Portal, but there’s a catch: the portal requires extreme, sustained momentum to stabilize.

If you slow down, the portal collapses. If you stop, you’re lost to the void forever.

🕹️ THE CORE MECHANIC: SPEED = PROGRESSION

In Lightspeed Escape, speed isn't just a number—it’s your win condition.

• Build Momentum: Push your engines to the limit to charge your Warp Meter.
• Maintain Velocity: Every collision with space debris drains your speed and resets your progress.
• The Illusion of Speed: Experience reality distorting as you approach lightspeed. Watch the stars stretch and your field of view warp as you break the laws of physics.

🛠️ KEY FEATURES

• Momentum-Based Gameplay: Feel the weight and power of a ship that gets harder to control the faster you go.
• Endless Hazard Navigation: Procedurally generated asteroid fields ensure no two escape attempts are the same.
• Dynamic Visuals: Screen-warping effects and FOV shifts that intensify as you reach top speed.
• High-Stakes Resource Management: Balance your fuel consumption against the need for constant thrust.

🎮 CONTROLS

• W / Up Arrow: Main Thrusters (Increase Momentum)
• A / D or Left / Right: Strafe / Dodge
• Spacebar: Activate Portal (Once Speed Threshold is met)
• Esc: Pause / Menu
