You’re good! Perhaps you can identify another?

Can’t remember the name of the game, but there was a sun in the center of the screen surrounded by 9 planets. You flew a spaceship, had to avoid the gravity of the sun (which had a black hole like gravity if you got too close) while shooting bad guys until you entered a “planet.” Once inside the planet, one had to remain aware of the gravity pulling from the sun, although the sun was out of sight.

In other words, if you entered the top right planet, the gravity would pull you left/down back toward the center. If you entered the bottom center, all the gravity would pull straight up. This while one had to fly their space ship around tunnels, avoid guns mounted in the tunnels, and I think other ships, too, make it all the way to the center of the planet, blow up whatever, and make it back out. Can’t touch the walls or you die.

Make sense?

Sounds suspiciously like Gravitar?

Sorry, I have no idea on that one...
