Asteroids · How to play
Asteroids puts steering and thrust inside a field of drifting hazards. A useful firing angle also needs a safe route for the ship afterward.
Controls
Space starts and fires. Arrows turn and thrust; touch buttons included.
Rules & goal
- Rotate, thrust and fire at the asteroids.
- Destroyed targets may leave smaller hazards, so keep watching the surrounding area.
- Follow the life and round indicators and avoid losing control through continuous thrust.
Beginner tips
- Short bursts of thrust are easier to manage than uninterrupted acceleration.
- After firing, prioritize fragments crossing your flight path over chasing another score.
