Hi Friends,

I am desperately looking for an old game i used to play, it was a top down space shooter game, i believe it was around 10 years ago, i will give as much detail as i can, i cannot remember what platform it was on, it was either on PSP or PC, so the gameplay involved the following:

- The player could choose a Hovering space ship, each had its own strengths.
- The Missions involved being in an arena type place, with different rooms, you had to destroy all of the NPC hovercrafts, you could go into portals which would take you into another room within the arena.
- Weapon pickups were also scattered throughout the play area, in the different rooms, one of them would be laser weapons for your hovercraft another would be a rapid shooting rocket etc.

the closes games i have found to it are Astro Tripper and hovership havoc. That game in my opinion was better than both of these games combined, the gameplay was very addictive.

Thank you so much, for your help, i hope we can find the game, it is a lost treasure.

I've been trying to think of something, but so far, nothing comes to mind =( The only game I think of when it comes to hovercraft is Microsoft Hover! That wasn't a top-down game, though.

Maybe it's a game called Inferno+ by RadianGames. It fits most of your description except for 2 things:
it's from around 6 years ago (not 10) and it has 2D graphics, while your examples all had 3D graphics.

* After reading your post again, I doubt that Inferno+ is the specific game you were looking for. But if you like
games in this genre, then you'd probably love Inferno+, and I also read it has a sequel called Inferno 2.

These are the closest games I could find to your description. I don't think they're the right game though.

Steel Storm: Burning Retribution

Vyruz: Destruction of the Untel Empire (i really doubt it, but I'm including it anyway)

Broken Bots (only a couple years old)
