GRAVITY WARS for the IBM-PC.

I wrote Gravity Wars many years ago. I'm now making it available as freeware (used to be shareware. Of course if you want to send money, please do.). Just don't claim it as your own.

This is a simple game, which runs in VGA or within a dos window in windows95. It should work in EGA mode as well. Two players take turns selecting angle and velocity of a projectile. With each new game a random arrangement of planets is placed in space between the ships. The path of the projectile is influenced by the gravity of nearby planets.

This is a typical screenshot from the program:

Additional options are available through the menus which are brought up by pressing the UP-ARROW key (then use the LEFT-ARROW and RIGHT-ARROW keys to highlight an item, and depress ENTER to select it; use the ESCAPE key to remove the menu.)

This is a typical screenshot showing a menu:
