2020: A Space Odyssey was first created during the 2020 GMTK Game Jam, where the theme was "Out of control". The alpha version was created during the jam, the game only contained 1 level. The point of the game is simple, you only need to get to the next planet and so on until the end of the stage. But the further you get, the harder it becomes since you always are building up speed. To get to the next planet you need to accelerate, and after you have accelerated for a certain amount of time, then you'll get slingshot out of the planet's gravitational pull and can, from there, proceed to the next planet. This process requires good precision and timing, that's the reason why the game gets harder, it is because you increase the speed.
