The game lacks any quit/close function. While the spaceship is flying, there is a notification under Silent notifications with the ship's status. If you swipe the easter egg out of the recent apps list, the notification remains, and it cannot be swiped away. I had to go to All Apps and Show System Apps to force close it from there.

It should be possible to just swipe the notification away—does that not work?
OK I just flashed Graphene and you're right, it's not swipeable. Must be a behavior change they didn't pick up for some reason.
It's more a general notification feature, which is why I'm surprised it didn't get picked up.
The background: we (Android) got so many complaints from users who wanted to be able to swipe away notifications that apps had marked non-dismissable, but didn't want to just block those apps' notifications outright. We landed on a compromise: "non-dismissable" notifications would be spared if you tapped "clear all", but if you showed clear user intent by trying to swipe away This Thing In Particular, we'd honor the request.
(I'll think about adding a switch for the notifications, like the autopilot button, in future versions of the Landroid egg.)
I understand Easter eggs have been broken in GrapheneOS before and this app is originally from Android 14, so if you need to just close this issue as not planned, understandable, given the hidden nature of this app and that I haven't seen this behavior in other apps
