love the old school graphics.  Really brings me back to the days of atari and c64, thanks.

Super responsive controls, perfect pacing, great chiptune music. Well done! the only criticism I have: sometimes when bringing the last fuel dollop to the rocket, the rocket takes off with the top segment still colored white. 

.. or maybe the original Spectrum title had that same bug and you're just being accurate? 😁

It's actually a bug I never fixed ^^'
Will try to squeeze some extra space to fix that, but glad you enjoyed it!
