Hi guys!
A very, very small issue is fixed: Now you can customize the input control for setting the mine velocity. So you may use a mouse without mouse wheel. This is a requirement for a new feature coming soon: I want to add full controller support, as this was wished by several players. Not as easy as it should be, but you may look forward.

Hello everyone!
After a long break (sorry!) development goes on. As promised you get some visual stuff this time, so enjoy the improved backgrounds. They look particularly impressive on a high resolutin screen. Aside from that, there are some small changes like a custom mouse cursor and glowing rocket engines. Have fun!

Hello Gravinauts!
The first update includes over a dozen small changes:
- a lot of fixes of tiny errors concerning sound, multiplayer, challenges, and head-up display
- some challenges are now a little bit easier and better to understand
- some comfort changes like a spaceship headlight indicator

Hey guys, Frank here. I created a Discord server for meeting other players: discord.gg/qScSYNV After joining you can
- arrange to meet others for online matches,
- discuss about the game, possible bugs, and desired features, and
- talk with former testers and the developer.

Its hard to check out a game when you only have a short trailer and some screenshots, so I released 15 minutes of gameplay: [previewyoutube=qij-UgNDElQ;full][/previewyoutube] You can see the menu, some challenges, and finally a complete multiplayer battle between me and a friend. The head-up display has changed a little bit meanwhile, but this video gives a good impression of the game.

Hello Gravinauts! Frank here. Its been a long time since I started with development and I am glad to finally announce: Gravity in Space is out now! This is my very first game and I have put a lot of effort into it. I hope you enjoy this mixture of rocket science and shooting and appreciate the uniqueness of the gameplay. Post your thoughts and issues to the Steam community hub, I am going to pay attention to all of your ideas. It helps me a lot if you spread the word. You can support me this way if you like my game. Now its time to have fun and to lift off!

- Gravity in Space Linux [3.5 G]
Unlike most other space games you are actually bound to Newton’s laws of motion — you cannot control where you go directly, but only indirectly through acceleration impulses that add to your current velocity vector. Controlling a spaceship is totally different compared to an aircraft. It is much harder. No air resistance, no maximum speed, no limits. You have to completely rethink the basic idea of flying. Float around several gravitation centers and use them to get to your target. But you must not lose focus on your enemy! You have put yourself in superior positions, avoid his mines, repel his attacks, and finally shoot him.
Features
- Enter your own little spaceship and don’t let yourself get overwhelmed by six degrees of freedom. Rotate along any axis and boost into any direction you want, independent from your current speed and orientation. To this end, your ship is equipped with 16 powerful rocket engines.
- Learn how to master astrodynamics and gravitational forces by solving various challenges. There are 25 of them spread over 14 different levels. Collect energy cores, reach certain orbits, destroy hostile explosives, fight against enemies, and more. A rank system tells you if you have trained enough to join multiplayer battles or to go to more difficult challenges. Maybe you have to retry a challenge to get a better score and to be promoted.
- Visit not only familiar planetary systems, but also surreal levels. Fly into the inner of celestial objects, move between hundreds of floating asteroids, or hide within thick nebulas. While you have to mess with physics, you don’t need to care about scale. No boring, endless emptiness like in real space, but instead varied, compact levels. Travel around a planet in real time within seconds, and fly through a giant asteroid field in less than a minute.
- A lot of celestial bodies are dynamic. There are worlds with hundreds of objects floating around a gravitation center, and you are right in the middle of them. But don’t worry: a sophisticated navigation assistance helps you to avoid collisions, even when you fly backwards, and to reach your desired orbit. But you have to keep an eye on resources, or you might lose control of your ship and crash into the next moon, planet, or asteroid belt.
- Fight online against other players in 1-vs-1 mode. Carefully plan your orbit through space and outplay your opponent until you finally use your chance for an attack. Tactical movements and fast skirmishes take turns spontaneously. One match lasts up to ten minutes and is a diverting, exciting, demanding, and often emotional experience.
