Rick Dangerous Posted December 7, 2022 Author Share Posted December 7, 2022 16,510 This is a pretty great port of Asteroids. Is there a Zap screen button like in Defender or Tempest? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagChris Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 No there's a power up that destroys everything on screen. Plus shield power up that destroys everything it touches. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jgkspsx Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Super Asteroids: 30050 I think my lifetime high score is over 100k. This game took a bad turn in a hurry: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jgkspsx Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 If it seems hard to you, some tips: - yellow powerups are shield recharges. Don’t miss or shoot them ever! - watch out for the speed powerup (grey with a white border). Collect no more than 2. Shoot the rest! Dying does not reset the speed setting! - the grey powerup with the grey edge is a power shield. It doesn’t last long but it’s great. - small precise movements are key. Don’t floor it unless you are correcting for getting bounced. Once you get momentum in a crowded asteroid field you’re good as dead. - be patient. Your health recharges over time to a certain point. Leave a slow asteroid if you are low and let your health recover. - when you get a power shield or the triple shot, try to take out as many waves as you can. With the triple shot you can easily take down large fields in a hurry. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jgkspsx Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Super Asteroids improvement: 39740. Getting there. I only collected one speed boost and that was more than enough. You are probably fine to avoid them entirely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
