š°ļø I just shipped Remora for the Figma Config Makeathon "a space debris cleanup game", built entirely in Figma and Figma Make with help of Sites.
PLAY NOW šÆ Remora - Let's Clean our Space š
Right now, more than 27,000 pieces of debris are orbiting Earth. Broken satellites, lost bolts, leftover rocket stages and nobody's cleaning it up. It sounds distant, but it isn't: this debris threatens the satellites our GPS, communications, and weather systems depend on, and could eventually block our access to space entirely.
I named the project Remora; a small fish that swims alongside sharks, cleaning their surroundings. We're the remoras. Space is our ocean.
The Makeathon brief was "design something that improves the world," and I wanted my answer to be playable, not just a poster.
Some of what's under the hood:
š® Two game modes: a free-flying drone collector with zero-G physics and a station-based sorting game where you triage incoming debris into recycling shipments
š¤ Three AI-controlled drones compete alongside you on a live leaderboard, each with its own personality and skill level
āØ Particle bursts, thruster trails, and docking animations ā built frame-by-frame on canvas, no game engine
š An animated Earth companion that reacts with rotating messages as you play
š” Satellites cross your flight path on real trajectories ā hit one and you lose cargo and hull integrity
š¼ A milestone-based upgrade system (Speed Boost, Cargo+, Magnet Field, Shield) that triggers mid-flight without pausing the game
It won't clean the orbit. But if it makes one more person think about the mess we're leaving up there ā it did its job.
š Try it live: Remora - Let's Clean our Space

We're the remoras. Space is our ocean.' ā that framing alone sold me. Making a real problem playable is such a smart approach. Impressive build!

Can we tag NASA here? š§
Hey Nikas, definitely we should tag NASA and ESA here. But I believe this situation will be mostly handled by 3rd party private companies at the end. Someone will come up with some idea to take the trash out without trouble (: lets see
For sure, but NASA has the money to hire the best third party teams and keep the ball rolling. šš
Ofcourse they have š
Love seeing different approaches to the Makeathon. This is a thoughtful and well-executed project.
Hey Mcnove, thank you a lot. Happy u like it (:

Which Kajabi pricing section would you ship?
Creative Business Lab has three paths: Course, Live Cohort, and Mentorship. Both designs show the same $690 Live Cohort with the same benefits. Only the presentation changes.
Vote Horizontal tabs or Side tabs, then tell me the one thing youād improve before launch. Have a stronger third approach? Show it in the replies.

Horizontal. side tabs read as nav, people skip them. though the stronger third option is no tabs at all, three cards side by side. both of these hide two prices behind a click and comparison is the one job a pricing section has.
All about play: website redesign for Starfish Studios.
This project is by far my favorite to date. I never would have thought I'd have anything to do with Minecraft, but finding the balance between a super playful brand and the professionalism that turned Starfish into an industry leader trusted by Disney, McDonald's, and Nickelodeon was the challenge of my dreams.
