LOADSTAR
THE RUN OF J-35661  NEW!
an original rebuild of the game Elon worked on as an intern
*** WELCOME HAULER *** you are cleared on the Imbrium line *** crater rats reported past marker nine *** do not open the cargo *** please insert disc 2 *** ground control is standing by ***
In the mid-90s, a summer intern wrote game software at Rocket Science Games. The game was LOADSTAR. His name is in the credits under GROUND CONTROL.

We rebuilt LOADSTAR, the game Elon worked on as an intern, into an original version you can play. You drive hauler J-35661 down a rail line on the Moon. Everybody shoots at you. You shoot back.
