I built a CLI game where your real GitHub activity fuels humanity's expansion into space.

Commits become energy - PRs become materials - Issues become research data

  The tech tree is based on NASA's actual roadmaps. Orbital mechanics are real (Hohmann transfers, delta-v budgets).

  Features:
  - Works offline (sync via LoRa, QR codes, ham radio)
  - 40+ technologies from reusable rockets to fusion power
  - Kaizen hackathons with real coding challenges
  - Git-forge agnostic (GitHub now, Gitea/Forgejo soon)

  Install: npm install -g spaceorbust

  I'd love feedback on the game balance and what features would make it more engaging.
