Links, repository & detailsAbout
Asteroids is a 1979 multidirectional shooter developed and published by Atari for arcades, where the player shoots and destroys asteroids and flying saucers while avoiding collisions. Vasteroids is a clone of Asteroids written in the V programming language, described by its author as their first-ever game project. It currently implements the single-player original game mode.
Getting started
Controls are Up to accelerate, Left/Right to turn, X to fire, Z to teleport, and Escape to pause.
Status & roadmap
- Planned but unimplemented features include an online last-man-standing multiplayer mode and extra difficulty settings, such as asteroids splitting into four pieces instead of two or ships spawning instead of asteroids.
