Overview

Space war is a classic game that features two spaceships, "the needle" and "the wedge", engaged in a dogfight while maneuvering in the gravity well of a star. Both ships are controlled by human players. Each ship has limited fuel for maneuvering and a limited number of torpedoes, and the ships follow Newtonian physics, remaining in motion even when the player is not accelerating. Ships are destroyed when hit with a torpedo or colliding with the star, though flying near the star can provide a gravity assist to the player.
