Arena? Space Game Question (Please Read)

After my last query for a game similar to a game called "space arena" which
was for my Commodore 64, someone said that there's a game called just "arena"
for IBM.  Now, what the game "Space Arena" was about was very basic.  It's two
little triangle space ships at opposite ends of the "arena."  And there's 3 or
4 huge meteors in the middle. You have controls: right rotation, left
rotation, thrust, and fire.  You can set the meteors in motion by firing at
them.. and the more you hit them, the faster they travel.  You also bounce off
of walls, and that's basically the game.  You have to crash your opponent.
It's a 2 player simultaneous game, in case that point wasn't clear. =-)

Now my question.. I WANT THIS GAME.  Does anyone know where I could find it,
or maybe even point me in a direction to find a similar game.  This was
absolutely the most fun game I've ever played on my C-64.  And, I'd love to
relive that fun with my IBM.  I'm almost tempted to dust off the old C-64, and
play that game, but alas, I am at college, and I don't want to clutter up my
room/apt. with another computer when my 386 does everything I need it to for
now...

Please help a college student with diversions!!!
