SimpleRockets by Jundroo, LLC
DescriptionDesign your own rocket ships. Blast off into space. Explore the solar system. See if you have what it takes to be a rocket scientist.CREATE Choose and connect parts together to build rocket ships. You can choose from a variety of rocket engines, fuel tanks, and other gizmos. You can even build rovers with powered wheels. You are only limited by your imagination. EXPLORE Blast off from any planet you want. You can fly through the intense atmosphere of Venus, or you can take advantage of the low gravity of Mercury. Whip around the sun and launch yourself out to the far reaches of the solar system. CHALLENGES Several challenges are built into the game so you can compete with other humans from around the world to see who can go the fastest, fly the farthest, orbit with the least amount of fuel, land on the moon, and so much more. ROCKET SCIENCE Kepler wrote the equations 400 years ago, and SimpleRockets uses those equations to model extremely realistic orbital physics. Players will learn about rocket science and astrodynamics while they are having a blast exploring the solar system. This makes SimpleRockets ideal for the classroom, or as a healthy alternative to the barrage of brainless games available on the App Store. FEATURES * Supports iPhone, iPod, and iPad * Realistic rocket physics and orbital physics * Sandbox mode * Leaderboards * Email your rocket to friends What's New in Version 1.2.1* Fixed display issue on non-retina displaysCustomer ReviewsA fun and educational app! (5 stars)I had a lot of fun trying, and eventually succeeding, to get into orbit around Smearth. I like how it uses realistic physics, unlike space agency. While there are a few very minor usability issues(hard to select small parts in assembly mode), I would certainly recommend this to anyone who likes space exploration and rockets! Wow! (5 stars) I haven't even started the game, but its like an ios version of Kerbal Space program! Endlessly fun! (5 stars) Great physics, many combinations, this game is one of the best iPhone physics games I've played!
