Xbox 360 gamepad highly recommended.

A top down spaceship shooter but instead of guns, you have access to a mobile gravity well that can push and pull enemy bullets, missiles, and asteroids. The enemy ships are equipped with antigravity measures, so your gravity well will have no direct impact on them. Keep an eye out for health packs enemies drop on death. Use your picked up items like a wrecking ball, it hurl them back at the enemies. And most importantly, try not to die!

Keyboard and Xbox 360 gamepad officially supported. Controls can be checked and rebound from the Options menu if you desire.

Possible additions to be added at an undetermined future date

More debris
- Enemy ships will turn into debris you can throw around after they die (will also reduce the asteroid count to further encourage this)
Minimal auto-aim
- Thrown items will slightly curve towards nearby enemies to make it feel better to blast items towards them
Limit the gravity well
- A slider will move up or down depending on the type of gravity you are using
- If it goes too far in either direction, that type of gravity will become weak or disabled
Rebalanced difficulty
- Increase enemy chase vision range
- Increase enemy speeds
- Adjust enemy health/damage/points
