About this game
Fuel Needed is an Action Arcade Side-Scrolling game in which the player is tasked to navigate through caves or planet surfaces full of obstacles in a spaceship to reach a platform at the end of the level while chasing after an alien and managing their fuel supply.
The game is making use of physics such as gravity and velocity to build momentum to thrust the spaceship through the air. If the spaceship hits an obstacle or a wall, it gets destroyed. If the spaceship runs out of fuel, it cannot thrust anymore, with the only way of replenishing being by picking up fuel canisters.
The game can be played solo, a race against time to complete the levels as fast as possible, or local multiplayer with the option of playing versus, up to 4 players race through the same levels as the solo, or co-op mode, in which up to 4 players control the same spaceship, each with their own controls.
The levels will take place on the Moon, Mars, Europa and Titan. Each world provides unique aesthetics, challenges and level designs that will take place in narrow caves or on their dangerous surfaces.

Dev Blog 28th August 2026
Hi everyone,This is the second Dev Blog that we are releasing, offering an update on the latest events and developments regarding Fuel Needed.Work on the Mars Levels:If you are following our social media, you would have seen some behind-the-scenes videos from our freelancers showcasing the making of the Mars levels. The red planet is going to be the second planet that you will be able to explore, featuring new environmental hazards and alien tech. If on the Moon, besides the first level, all the other levels happen only in the caves, Mars is going to have a more mixed path, requesting or encouraging players to head onto the surface and face the challenges while racing to reach the end as fast as possible.We will release a Mars levels showcase once all the levels are ready.We are planning on two more planets once Mars is completed, so stay tuned to find out more!Customisation Features:In the previous dev blog, we talked about our plans to implement customisation features such as input controls, customising the colour for all the UI elements, and localisation.We are happy to announce that all these features have been implemented. The colour customisation offers four presets: cyan, pink, orange, and metallic, but also offers the option to completely customise your interface with a colour picker for every single element.We have also implemented the localisation system, allowing players to change the in-game language. We already include the first new language and will announce it shortly, with more to come. We are planning to include as many languages as possible to offer the best experience to our players.Future Plans:With the customisation features successfully implemented, that concludes the features that will be included in the demo.Our next short-term goal is to polish the demo as much as possible and include new languages before making it available to the public.We will also work on finalising the remaining planned levels with the help of our freelancers and implem...Read full article on Community Announcements (AGE Interactive)AnnouncementsOfficial
