the big m — 3 Sept 2024
I really like this Asteroids version. While I enjoy the 7800 game, this has some nice 16-bit sprites. Audio is underwhelming, but still a nice game from the Yugoslavian Paradox developers.

An honestly competent version of Asteroids on the ST. Not a lot of frills, but also not a lot of slow down when the rock parade gets intense. There is no way to use the keyboard (that I can find). I would have like if it was as good look-wise as the 7800 version, but it's still fun to play. Not as good as Megaroids, but has the shields and extra enemy of Asteroids Deluxe.
