    • Different bunkers' and planets' shapes.
    • No planet animations.
    • Stronger and more intense Gravity (Game-play is much harder).
    • Some sounds are different during the game.
    • There is an additional 'Low on Fuel' warning if the fuel level drops below 2000 fuel units that is not present in Gravitar.
    • Rammer ships are present in the south planet of the second solar system - Not in Gravitar.
