Saying that, I thought the time limits, while consistent with the theme, were slightly irritating.

You've got ten seconds between each checkpoint, make it in time or die.\r\n\r\nAssault\r\nIn this mode you need to kill one enemy every ten seconds or you die. The goal is to kill all the enemies and then return to the platform. This mode is pretty hard as I didn't have any time left to tweak it.\r\n\r\nDelivery Day\r\nGo get all the red packages and bring them back to your base, one by one. You have ten seconds to find a package, then you have 10 seconds to bring it back to the main platform.\r\n\r\nThere are 3 levels \/ game mode.\r\n\r\nAs I'm such a nice guy you have five extra lives in each mode. :D\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nAccelerate: Up Arrow, A, or Left Ctrl\r\nSteer: Right and Left Arrow\r\nFire: Space, S, or Left Shift\r\n\r\nEdit 1:\r\nI rewrote this description after I had got some sleep. :)\r\nAdded web version.\r\nI also uploaded a new version where I fixed two bugs\r\n- The number of lives in the HUD didn't match reality.\r\n- It was impossible to complete a level in Assualt mode (the if-all-enemies-are-dead-line was missing).\r\n\r\nEdit 2:\r\nAdded Mac-version.\r\nI found a bug in the camera code when I tested the Mac version. The ship ended up outside the screen sometimes. :\/\r\nI updated the Windows-version with the same fix (changed two lines of code) just to make sure the game is playable, which I hope was an ok thing to do.\r\n\r\nEdit 3:\r\nAdded Linux-version. I haven't tested it myself but a friend tried it out and it worked for him at least. :)","title":"Graviteer"}
