Let us take you on a journey. It's a short journey, I know you haven't got all day. A journey to a world where lines ruled...
The year was
1979, and computers could only be made to draw two things: one was a
line, and the other was also a line. With clever arrangement, both
these lines could be transformed into spaceships and big rocks and
flying saucers and even more lines. And so, thanks to the line pioneers
at Atari, we were blessed with the line-tastic Asteroids.
Your
spaceship floats in space and you have to destroy all the asteroids, but
the more you shoot the more you create. Watch out for the UFOs which
can shoot back, and be careful: you only have one ship for every 10,000
points scored.
