Description

Asteroids is an arcade-style space shooter game developed and released by Atari in 1979. The player controls a spaceship in an asteroid field which is periodically traversed by flying saucers. The object of the game is to shoot and destroy the asteroids and saucers while not colliding with either or being hit by the saucers' counter-fire. The game becomes harder as the number of asteroids increases. The game ends when all lives have been lost. A scoring system is also in place which rewards players for destroying asteroids and saucers.
