The game has some technical merit to be sure.  It's single line res
throughout, and this gives it a very crisp look.

It would be nice if the lander had some indication of the engines firing,
though, and all of the sprites are monocolored.  It would be nice to
stripe them some if possible.

I do think the gameplay needs to be deepened with variously shaped
platforms and more randomness.  Instead of hardcoding the platforms you
could use a mathematical algorithm like Pitfall and River Raid.  That's
the most memory efficient.
