S'alright

It's a good clone, but I have to agree with smoker, to make it more like the original, it should continue traveling forward at the same speed until an opposite force acts (like the thruster) and the speed should be greater, a remember in asteroids, the ship was a bitch to control because it was so damn fast. The "music" got old REALLY quickly, I would suggest changing it to something longer. Still got a 4, because, despite the fact I really wasn't entertained, it was a good replica of a classic game.

a fair remake of asteriods

the control were laggy, I would like to have used arrow keys instead of the number pad

Not that great

The programming was good. But the screen was tiny, especially on NG where you can't resize; the ship took some getting used to, since the forward-swept wings make it always look like it was facing the opposite way; and there was no function to check the area for asteroids for your new ship appearance, so that after you're killed you can be killed instantly again if there's an asteroid in the center of the screen. And, I think you should have used arrow keys and ASD keys too -- trying to control all seven defensive, offensive and movement functions with one hand is a pain. Also, at this size and with monochrome wireframes the 3D look added nothing. It was only interesting in the intro section.

Decent programming, but a very ho-hum remake.

Needs Work..

The controls... Ugh... turned me off to the game immediatly.. very hard to use.. had to focus on which key did what instead of on the screen so i kept dying.. not a bad game, just needs a lil work.

way too glitchy

If it weren't for the glitchyness....that would be an awesome game
