How it feels

A fast-paced, physics-heavy arcade shooter where you carefully maneuver a spaceship through caverns while managing gravity and enemy defenses.

What players say

Players call this a faithful but tougher remake of the 1986 Thrust. They praise the music, graphics, and scoring, and some say it improves on the original. A minority feel the production is overdone at the cost of gameplay, and one reviewer notes key rebinding issues.
