So a really simple 1K type-in game based around the Lorentz Effect, which is time dilation when you travel close to the speed of light.

You have a spaceship and want to go to the future.

You are given a target of how many years to travel.

You enter your speed, as a fraction of the speed of light. You enter the distance you want to travel.

Bosh!

The computer does the maths. If your journey takes YOU more than 50 years, you die of old age. If you arrive within 5 years, you win.

That's it.

Time outside the ship is

Time inside/ the square root of (1 - the square of your speed)
