Asteroids
[Note: Play this game with
extreme caution! Can be very habit-forming!!]
Use the keyboard controls described below to maneuver your ship,
destroying as many asteroids as you can while avoiding collision
with them. Also watch for the flying saucers armed with guided
missiles.
If you warp into hyperspace, your ship
will momentarily disappear then reappear on another part of the
screen, gradually fading in. During this time the ship is
invulnerable. Likewise, when your ship is destroyed, a new one
will appear in the center of the screen. You can still maneuver
and fire during this time so if you are in imminent danger, you
have a couple of seconds to get out of it.
