Description
This is the beta build submitted for class. If there are outstanding issues, please submit a bug report.
You are Ares, the last Opportunity Class rover to be sent to Mars. Unfortunately, your landing spot was thin, and you smashed right through, landing in a dark cave.
Navigate out of the cave before you run out of power. Your solar panels can help you recharge if you find the rare, sunny spots in the roof.

Contrary to the previous comment, recharging is quite simple - just drive into the bright orange areas. Goals are not clear - you need to escape the cave, but there's no indication of what direction to go in. With no minimap to record where you've been, it's too much trial and error. Lots of glitches in how the rover moves across the terrain. It looks weird that the rover is always perfectly level despite the terrain it's on. Likes: controls are smooth and responsive, setting is cool.

what is the point to this game and a few bugs i picked up. there is no way to recharge your energy. the options menu does not work and nothing to tell you that you have died or run out of energy it just jumps you to the menu again. all in all good game guys look forward to seeing the beta
