So someone posted about Space Wars or another such game that got me remembering an arcade game we played a bit. Was rather fun in a novelty kind of way, I want to call it Graviton, but I am sure that is not the game. The set up is this: Two player game each player controls an asteroids-like ship except you have shields and the ships are yoked together by a "cord" i.e. when you use thrust it swings your mate round etc. both ships had a limited amount of shields (energy) and once a ship was destroyed the "cord" acted as a fuse to destroy the other ship. Anyone have any ideas on the game, and if there is a port or facsimile of it available for the 64?


Thanks!

I believe you are thinking of "Space Duel" and i know of no port of it.

Yes, definitely sounds like Space Duel. A 1980 Atari machine with vector graphics, based on Asteroids hardware.

I don't know of any C64 port either (but if you want a nostalgia trip, it works perfectly well in MAME).
