You select control layouts via OPTIONS - STEER. You can also use a keyboard. Use keys A,S for rotations, K for thrust and L for releasing cargo. In order not to have virtual buttons clutter the screen, set STEER in options to KEY.
CHOOSE SHIP ROTATION SPEED:
To support different playing styles, the ship rotation speed can be configured. Change the speed in OPTIONS - ROT. SPEED. Note that this speed setting affects all input methods.

A cross between Thrust and Asteroids, the game is fast-paced and fluid but needs further development to make it one I'd keep. Unlike Asteroids, if you go off the screen the level restarts; the tumbling boulders are too fast, too often I've run out of manoeuvring time and just hit the thrust in a panic to get away (then hit the side of the screen and had to start again); the controls need work as steering the craft relies on sliding your thumb, not pressing a control button; good simple graphics tho.
