Gravitus Minus

Hello everyone,

Gravitus Minus is a game I have been working on for a while and I finally released something a few weeks ago. The game will be instantly recognizable for those who remember Thrust (or Solar Jetman if you had a NES), your mission is to use your rotating spaceship to fetch a heavy energy core that keeps pulling your ship down thanks to the ruthless gravity. Since the original game was known to be a bit hard, I added an "Easy Mode" that has a simple control method and it allows you to make a few mistakes.

The game features some very nice chiptune music from n00bstar (be sure to check out the trailer below for a taster) and the quite well known pixel artist Ilkke helped me with the graphics. There also are challenges for each level and an online high score leaderboard system.

Currently, you can play it on Windows and Linux. The itch app is the easiest way to install the game, obviously .

I made a little instruction booklet! Now need to figure a way to make it happen as a physical object instead of just a PDF. :)

Very nice.. Graphics are a great improvement over the original NES version.. Nice take!

Thanks!
