Reviews for "Asteroids Revenge III"
Awesome fun!
AWesome game! I love launching my asteroids and letting them do a free for all battle and then when I Swirl them in a shield formation. Favorited.
Nice one!
I love it when games so refreshingly original as this get released :) I think the concept and execution was pretty amazing and it had me playing untill the end. I especially liked the whole upgrade thing and how you're fellow asteroids protected you.
I only wish maybe the asteroids would rotate faster as a default so when you release them they'd cause more carnage. And its a shame there wasnt an enemy that would dodge your asteroids intelligently, though i realise that would be a pain in the ass to program! (maybe in AR4 perhaps?)

Thanks errollww! I love the compliment. :)
So you want carnage, I can give you that. Its a bit tricky to pull off but incredibly effective.
Basically you bring in all your asteroids as close as possible, then roll your mouse wheel (or key) to send them to the maximum distance. However, before they reach the max distancepress and hold the mousebutton (or key). This will releaset them with their outward velocity and create a spectacular ring of death to rapidly clear the board of any foolish human ships.
The mini-fighters actually do a decent job of avoiding you. They could (and have in previous builds) avoid you much more effectively but then are incredibly annoying to kill.
Lots of Work and Luff a good game makes :3
Really when I started I like the way you ease us (the player) Into how the game and mechanics work, and It was fun and challenging.
Your story and starting cutscene was funny and made of win, really now how many time do you play AS the asteroid?
Anyway your upgrade system is cool and you really capture the whole "We are one, we are legion" way of the noble asteroid. Really when I got to the level with "The mine" and blew myself apart for my team I thought it was game over until I saw another ally of mine rise to leadership! (Great actionscript and great gameplay!)
My one gripe is when I got to the level before the last, I was PWNZORED by the boss, It was nice letting us continue but even then with half my powerups I had no chance... It was sad really...Someday I'll see one of the endings...someday...
Either Way GREAT game, Cool mid level pep-talks and an awesome story! I can't wait to see your next flash!!!
And it didn't lag either!

Nice review! Thank you very much!
The boss was hard to balance... if you come at him with an armada of allies you would complain about how easy he was to kill. If you try again, try to grab the ally powerups on those last few levels. It will make a big difference.
Yes, I did a lot of optimization in this game. It really shows on the free-for-all level (after the boss) where you can be fighting up to 100 ships at a time.
very good.
but hard
