For today's #WebGamesAdvent game, we have "Return to the Moon: Lunar Lander 13k", made in #JavaScript with #SVG graphics for #JS13k. It is a loving tribute to the actual #Apollo lunar landing and the little genre of games that followed it.

The game: https://deathraygames.github.io/lunar-lander-13k/src/ (the moon portrayed as an asteroid due to time constraints; ⌨ needed)

"Min-Craft 1975" is just a limited copy of Notch's #MiniCraft. But limitations were by design because it is meant as a tribute to the #PLATO from the 70's & 80's, a system that led to quite a few groundbreaking yet forgotten video games.

It was programmed using many of the same limitations that the PLATO had (w.r.t. screen, not memory), and the underlying #JavaScript framework, #OWLBAT, could be used for future projects.
