Fly around and blow things up in this amazing arcade game.
You are flying across the depths of space, listening to your favorite
album, "Joe's Garage." Your assignment -- clean up the asteroid belt. The
mass of asteroids has increased, causing the orbits of the planets to shift.
Why are they gaining mass? Could it possibly be the wandering aliens living
among the asteroids?
Regardless, your mission is to clear the asteroid belt!
HOWEVER . . .
This won't be easy, as aliens, who see the asteroids as friends, are
watching your every move. If you shoot an alien or an asteroid, they know
you're up to no good and will attack!

^1 PLAYING THE GAME
Use the Up Arrow key to increase speed and the Down Arrow to decrease.
To turn your space ship to the left, press the Left Arrow key. To turn
right, press the Right Arrow key. Fly around and shoot (using the spacebar)
all asteroids and aliens you encounter. Pressing S will bring up a map of
the sector. Your spaceship is the white dot in the center of the map, and
the red and blue dots are asteroids and aliens.
Points are scored by shooting asteroids and alien spacecraft. Large
asteroids, when shot, break into smaller ones which must also be destroyed.
When all of the asteroids and aliens have been cleared from the sector, the
next wave begins. Your ship can be destroyed by enemy fire and by colliding
with asteroids. When all three of your ships are destroyed, you fail in your
mission and the game is over. If you have done well enough, you may become
the new high scorer.
Good luck and may the Roidz be with you!
