Zzzone!
"In space, no one can hear you curse..."
A gravity game loosely based on the famous "Thrust" which I enjoyed as a teenager. The goal is to place fuel pods into a collector so the rocket can lift off. The game starts with two training sessions.
The game is alive at https://www.engehausen.de/jan/zzz.html
A longplay video with all levels successfully completed can be found at https://youtu.be/tB0TSyMfM34

Building the game
Make sure the dependencies are resolved by running npm install.
Then execute
npm run build --production
to build the game. Open src/index.html in a browser; this will run the game.
Running the game in debug mode
If you run just
npm run build
and then open src/index-dev.html in a browser, the game will contain some additional debug code.
A level can be accessed with the prefix d and its code, for example: file://...src/index-dev.html#d77564 - this will render the level and its model. Pressing d removes the SVG layer, e removes the model layer.
Here's a screenshot of the planck model of a level, used for debugging:
Building the editor
Yes, I created a level editor for myself. It is not very fancy, but it beats writing pure JSON.
I used it in combination with manual intervention to create the levels.
If you want to have a look, set the environment variable EDITOR=y and run
npm run build
Open src/index-dev.html in a browser. This will show the editor. Here's a screenshot:
