Thrust
Thrust is a rewrite of the classic Commodore 64 game of the same name, ported to Un*x and MSDOS. The object of the game is to lift the Klystron Pod from the bottom of a cave and return it safely to space. The Pod is very heavy (compared to the ship), and this makes it tougher than it may seem. You must be careful not to run out of fuel, crash into the cave walls, nor let the enemy artillary outposts shoot you down.

Release Notes: The configure script previously failed to detect vga_getmodenumber in SVGAlib even if it was present. This release should improve the situation when trying to use the SVGAlib wrapper for GGI instead of the real SVGAlib. A couple of even smaller fixes were also made.
