_Submission for Mobile game jam Oct 2022. _
Millions of miles away, a black hole is fast approaching our solar system and threatens to destroy us. You cannot destroy the black hole but can alter its course with photon bombs.
From earth, you control a space force of a mother-ship and 6 AI-drones. Your space force has reached the location of the black hole. They are loitering at a safe distance awaiting your commands.
You command the mother-ship to launch the photon bomb-pods at a safe distance away from the black hole. You control the drones to unpack the pods and spread them around and into the eye of the black hole.
Sometimes control may lag due to signal distance from earth and the drones having their own AI. But overall, they will obey your control input. Every pod placed pushes the black hole away.
Interesting note: You can send drones out of play area with left\right control but they will return on their own.
