Space Rocks is a new Atari 2600 homebrew, and it's pretty incredible. Grand Prix is an update, but the grade did not change.
Let me know what you think about these reviews.

Space Rocks looks like a lot of fun. Asteroids has always been an old favorite of mine (although I was never very good at it) but this does look better. Good reviews.

Thanks for the review on Space Rocks!
Were you playing on the Harmony Cartridge? If so I wonder if having had the manual would have helped in regards to the Magna-Mines.
Dave Dries' did a great job on the manual, I love how it looks like a well used arcade machine![[smile]](/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif)
For those wondering about their inclusion in the game, the Magna-Mines are based on the Killer Satellite that are found in Asteroids Deluxe.

Yes, I was playing on my Harmony cartridge. The packaging for the official release looks pretty sweet though.
