Six degrees of freedom

Descent replaces a flat floor plan with mines that twist in every direction. The ship can pitch, roll and slide through tunnels while robots attack from what used to be the ceiling.

This is the original PowerPC shareware package, not a repack or modern port. Systemless compatibility has not yet been verified.
