From the README

A two-player gravity-shot duel: fire missiles, slingshot them around planets, hit the other ship.

This is a 2026 Rust + macroquad rewrite of the original Python/pygame Slingshot by Musther/Mak/Dreier/Kavanagh. Single binary on desktop, a single .wasm in the browser - same gameplay either way.

That builds a native binary and opens an 800×600 game window. Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows (whatever macroquad supports - no extra system deps).

The repo is set up so the working tree itself is the static site. No dist/, no copy step.
