Rockets!

Rockets! is an educational game designed to teach ballistics and basic physics through the medium of friggin' rockets. In this game you select components and bearing in order to launch your rocket along an optimal path, hitting waypoints and clearing obstacles along the way.

Rockets! was a competition entry created in July 2007. It came second, winning me a small amount of prize money - the first money I had ever earned from a video game. It's not aged badly, all things considered, but it's a little rough around the edges graphically. Still a pretty fun time, though.
