About Asteroides

it's simple, fast, rock-ing, rolling, without pauses, without life, without time will you save the earth?

Asteroides is a 70/80s single player shooter with realistic physics and a completely three-dimensional environment.
Moving, destroying and surviving is complicated in an infinitely finite space.

The game is a classic old school coin up and like all "jamma" it does not allow pauses in the game, if you stop for a moment... GAME OVER!
A game with a very simple concept, it shoots and moves forward and turns clockwise and counterclockwise, 4 buttons... But being able to get out of it alive to the end is truly impossible.

Old school rock sounds and music will help you on this journey away from earth.

Asteroides is an arcade space game. Asteroides is a game in which you destroy asteroids* and satelites and what not in order to save the galaxy. The game is extremely unfair, there are way too many enemies, the powerups bounce against obstacles and fly off the screen 99% of the time and most of them really doesn't do much (Rockets do nothing at all?) The game has no menu and pressing the ESC key... closes the game. What about the middle mouse button? That's right, it closes the game too. Like really do some testing before releasing your game. The game has 3 levels which are all the same, 3 uninspired bosses and only 1 space ship and gun. Also, the sound keeps glitching and the controls are super janky. Overall, it's bad, it's short and it's not worth your time, avoid.

Asteroides is an unabashed, lazy ripoff of Asteroids (Copyright Atari, 1979)... right down to infringing on the trademarked name. Many lazy "amateur" developers don't pay attention to their obligations under copyright law, and often steal the ideas of actual, real game developers without credit, such as the "developer" here has done. Putting aside the unethical intellectual, creative and moral bankruptcy of stealing someone else's game concept, this is also breaking that unwritten law of stealing other people's game ideas... you should at least try to do better than the game you're ripping off. Asteroides is considerably worse than Asteroids. What do you do in the game? It's literally just Atari's Asteroids game, but (really badly) rendered in 3D. Tetris Holdings LLC vs Xio Interactive shows us that games themselves, their names, trademarks and mechanics are all subject to copyright law, which the developer here is gleefully infringing on purpose (and, at times, for profit)... this is not just creatively and morally bankrupt, in some parts of the world the extent of this copyright infringement can be seen as breach of criminal law and can result in fines starting around $250,…

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
