About
Asteroids
Let me take you back... back to a world before
pixels. In those days, all people had were lines. A company called
Atari had recently wowed crowds with their clever use of lines in
a game called Pong, but now line technology had advanced. It was
1979, and lines could be made to look like spaceships and big rocks
and flying saucers... as long as you squinted a little.
And so, Asteroids was born. It's an elegantly
simple game, but beautifully gratifying. You float in space and
shoot the asteroids, but the more you shoot, the more asteroids
you create. And be careful — you only have one ship for each
10,000 points scored. - Neave
