GravitreX Arcade

GravitreX Arcade is a 2D physics simulation in which you try to land two ships on their respective platforms. Both ships are present even in single-player, and the game is more difficult and physics-focused than the classic Lunar Lander.

Control two ships

Each ship has thrusters and a grabber that can lift boxes or the other ship. You can also switch ships and activate AutoHover by holding the switch-ships control. Ships have multiple systems that can be damaged; when a system breaks, a synthetic voice announces the damage, and you can acknowledge or mute the warnings.

In two-player games, the first person to start becomes Player 1, and the next person to use a control becomes Player 2. If Player 1 switches ships, Player 2 controls Ship 1 until the level ends; Player 1 controls Ship 1 again from the next level.

Levels and scores

The arcade format starts every play on level one. There are 35 levels of increasing difficulty, and you earn extra ships for every 30,000 points. The game includes Steam achievements and an arcade-style high-score table with initials. Scores can appear among your Steam friends' all-time entries and the global entries for the day. The first five players to finish the game are listed on the online “Prime Five” table.

Arcade cabinet options

The game can be set up for arcade cabinets, including coin operation. Coin handling options include None, for standard PC play; Freeplay, which requires no coins; Internal, where inserted coins add credits; and External, which reads credit status from an external coin mechanism. High scores can be saved locally when the cabinet has no internet access.
