Asteroids Game Instructions

Welcome to Asteroids, a classic space shooting game. In the game, you will control a spaceship, travel through the vast universe, avoid the constantly incoming asteroids, and use weapons to destroy them to get points. Here are detailed game instructions:

Control method

Rotate the spaceship:

Right arrow key: rotate the spaceship to the left. This helps adjust the direction of the spaceship to better aim at asteroids or avoid obstacles.

Left arrow key: rotate the spaceship to the right. In contrast to the right arrow key, the left arrow key is used to adjust the direction of the spaceship to the right.

Propel:

Up arrow key: control the spaceship to move forward. Keep pressing the up arrow key and the spaceship will continue to accelerate. Pay attention to control the speed to avoid being too fast to control or hit the asteroid.

Game goal

Destroy asteroids: destroy asteroids by aiming and shooting them. You will get a certain score for each asteroid destroyed.

Protect the spaceship: prevent the spaceship from being hit by asteroids. Once the spaceship is hit, you will lose a life. When all lives are used up, the game ends.

Improve your score: Improve your score by destroying asteroids and completing specific tasks (if any). The higher your score, the higher you rank on the leaderboard.

Notes

Observation and prediction: Asteroids will continue to be generated from the edge of the screen and fly towards the spacecraft. You need to always observe the situation on the screen, predict the movement trajectory of the asteroids, and flexibly adjust the position and direction of the spacecraft.

Reasonable use of propulsion: Propulsion not only allows the spacecraft to move forward, but also helps you avoid asteroids at critical moments. But be careful to control the force and time of propulsion to avoid excessive consumption of fuel or causing the spacecraft to lose control.

Stay calm: When facing the siege of many asteroids, it is crucial to stay calm and make wise decisions. Don't shoot or propel blindly, observe carefully and find the best escape or attack route.

Additional features (if any)

Weapon upgrade: In some versions, you may be able to upgrade the weapons of the spacecraft by collecting specific props. The upgraded weapons will have stronger power and a wider shooting range.

Shield: Some games also provide shield props that can protect the spacecraft from the impact of asteroids for a short time.
