Asteroids.java
[Note: Play this game with extreme caution! Can be very
habit-forming!!]
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 missles.
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 invunerable. 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.
