Asteroids...
 

Asteroids. Mike Hall did a wonderful job of Java programming and we can't thank him enough for making it available. Your browser will have to be able to run Java in order for you to play Asteroids.

Instructions:
Use the keyboard controls described below to maneuver your ship, destroying as many asteroids as you can while avoiding collision with them. Also watch for the flying saucers armed with guided missiles.

If you warp into hyperspace, your ship will momentarily disappear then reappear on another part of the screen, gradually fading in. During this time the ship is invulnerable. Likewise, when your ship is destroyed, a new one will appear in the center of the screen. You can still maneuver and fire during this time so if you are in imminent danger, you have a couple of seconds to get out of it.

Note: After the program loads, left click in the center of the game to select it and then press "S" to start the game!
