GRAVITONYou are Captain Escavel, intrepid explorer (or at least, that's what you fancy yourself... your comrades prefer the word, well... "foolish"). You have a certain knack for getting yourself ... [More] stuck in the gravity well of black holes. Whether investigating on a science mission or using blackholes as gravity slingshot, you never quite manage to escape properly. Unfortunately, every black hole you've been drawn towards these days happens to have a large amount of debris floating towards it... said debris adds mass to the hole, and you know what that means. It gets bigger and can eventually swallow you! Alas, your thrusters are too weak to escape. Conveniently, you have a matter/energy transducer on board. You can collect radioactive asteroid cores and convert them into energy. Your goal is to strafe around the edge of the gravity well trying to hit and deflect as much of the flying debris as possible, while collecting enough cores to fully power your thrusters... before the void devours you. THRUSTERS: POWERUP! [Less]

Small project that is being created to teach the basics of game programming and to experiment with C# and Direct X.
