SpaceTug

As the pilot of an asteroid-pushing space tugboat, you must use your gravity field generators to destroy the incoming alien ships.
Use gravity and antigravity to fling rocks at aliens, or make them crash into eachother. Be careful to avoid being hit by a rock or by the aliens' lasers.

Now with survival mode: see how long you can last with gravity always on.

Controls:
Up - move forward
Left/Right - turn
Z - activate gravity generator
X - activate antigravity generator

Hints:
Rocks block laser
You can sometimes suck aliens into your boosters and escape unharmed
