90s cave flyer games

This game genre was very popular in Finland and today I stumbled upon my favourite, Wings!
Does anyone else have experience about this genre?

Phantoms of the Asteroid (which was horribly, horribly addictive!)

I played Airwolf on my Atari ST! About 19 years ago... Woah! It's been a while. Should probably see if I could get the old horse fixed(Refuses to read any discs!).
Phantoms of the Asteroid doesn't ring any bells. Was it C64 exclusive?

Looks a lot like Thrust. *namskis*

So much old-new titles to try out... When will I have time to play Oolite!?

It wasn't in a cave, and it was in the 80's, but I got addicted to Harrier Attack on the Spectrum.

Got to love Thrust on the BBC.

!m!

Somehow Harier Attack made me think of Triplane Turmoil
Also not happening in caves, but the dogfigths were fierce. We used play these games for hours, four friends hunched over a single keyboard, shouting profanities and elbowing eachother...

Re: PotA for C64 only? quite possibly - it was an enormous game - fab sound - A Mastertronic special (therefore 2.99 rather than 1.99) .

Got to love Thrust on the BBC.

And on the C=64, loved it!

I still have the 64 and somewhere the cartridge of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wwlf1UXMrKs

Just found out that Assault Wing is still in development! If I remember correct, the original was published 1998.

Parallax on the C64 just for the music.

Reyn Ouwehand playing Parallax (the music, not the game)

If you're on PC there's a great freeware Thrust remake called Thrust Xtreme
http://www.pixelprospector.com/thrust-xtreme/
doesn't properly support widescreen monitor resolutions so things look a bit stretched in widescreen but it's a lot of fun

Love the new avatar, Griff!

I loved it so much I did a pale imitation...
