Yep, Gravity Power was the version made for Amiga Power.

And personally I prefer Thrust Deluxe to Thrust Xtreme (both by the same chap) because I prefer the physics and handling in it (which is a shame because the neon look’s rather nice in Xtreme.

Was Gravity Power the one Amiga Power gave away on one of their coverdisks? Or was that Gravity Force 2 or something? Gah, damn you poor memory!

Also, R3 on the Amiga was fun. (I think that was another Thrust clone.)

Brings back fond memories of Turbo Raketti on the Amiga… Oh the innocent fun of blasting your friends to pieces before crashing head first into the ground trying to shake your own heat-seeking missile…

Err. Actually, you didn’t miss out Lander. You didn’t include it because it isn’t freeware, like all the others.

Sorry.

I remember getting all the way to the invisible levels in Thrust when I had it on my, now ancient, BBC Model B computer. Pretty darn amazing game for the time when you think about it, what with all the gravity physics and what have you, and all running in a miniscule 32k of ram.

I’ll try some of these when I get back from college. Vaguely reminded of ZONE 66. Now that was a game and a half. Think I got the shareware with PC Formats Top 100 Games Christmas Disc 1993 or something.
