For CD32+FDD users:

 now "Gravity Power", which is totally update version, is free downloadable from the author's website.
 So we strongly recommend you to play "Gravity Power", not "Gravity Force 2".

Preferences


Pros:
• In "Preferences" screens, you can edit many coefficients related to ships and attributes. You can also save those settings.(See above.)
• The game screen is adjusted (full screen or split screen) automatically. (This feature is only for "Gravity Power".)
• Just like original game "Gravity Force", there are not only "Dogfight" levels but also "Race" levels.
• There are walls you can destroy.
• Many traps & stuff (e.g.  magnets, turrets, water...) await you.
• After you made the port 1 disable, you can enjoy race levels even if the mouse is connected to port #1 (=port#2 of CD32).
• Statistics (e.g. the number of fights, bullets fired, total playtime...) is saved automatically.

Cons:
• All levels have the same width.
• The number of colors for the map is 60 at most, however, its graphics seems cheap-looking than "TurboRaketti" released in 1993.


Level editor & custom levels


There is a level editor coded Richard Franks.
It is free downloadable from Jens' website.
(Again, Jens Andersson is a coder of "Gravity Force 2"&"Gravity Power".)

At least it seems easy if we create our own levels using tiles created initially.
Extract that archive, then copy files to df0:GP .
Don't forget to copy following files:
"asl.library", "mathtrans.library" and "explode.library" to df0:Libs
"IconX" to df0:C

First you should do is loading tiles.
Then the program asks which level you want to load.
You can either edit level existed or create a whole new level.
Some people have created their own levels so far. Of course we can play them.
Those files ( ".GFB" files / "(Rase).GFB" files) must be put in df0:GP/Levels .
50 levels are confirmed.
8 levels (by Crane brothers), 22 levels (by Ouchterlony) and 1 level (by Rick Bolton) are downloadable from Jens' website.
11 levels (by J. Percival & W. Nolan) and 8 levels (by Jamie Percival) are downloadable from aminet.
