About Asteroid Blast

Asteroid Blast channels the original vector-shooter arcade genre. Your ship moves only by rotating and thrusting — and thanks to inertia, momentum doesn't stop when you do.

Shoot a large rock and it splits into two medium ones; medium rocks split into two fast little shards. Smaller means faster and worth more points. Fly off one edge and you reappear on the opposite side.

Clear every rock to bring on the next, bigger wave. How many waves can you survive on three lives? Your best score is saved.

Tips & Strategy

Frequently Asked Questions

Why won't my ship stop moving?

The ship moves with inertia, so it keeps drifting even after you let go of thrust. That's why using short bursts of thrust is key to accurate aiming and dodging.

What happens when I shoot a rock?

A large rock (20 pts) splits into two medium rocks (50 pts), and each medium rock splits into two small shards (100 pts). The smaller the piece, the faster it moves and the more it's worth.

What happens at the edge of the screen?

The screen wraps around, so flying off one edge brings you back on the opposite side. You can use this to escape to the other side when you're cornered.
