Asteroid clones for the 2002 and 2004 1k mini game competitions.

Kiloroid has no sound - Asteroids is famous for the explosions. Set on a blue backdrop - isn't space dark and black? Your yellow triangle shaped ship gains speed by pressing the shift button and moves in a direction by pressing the z or x keys. Enter fires bullets from your ship at random shaped asteroids. A hit makes the asteroid smaller and keep hitting them the asteroids get smaller and you disintegrate them. When an asteroid hits your ship it's not game over it just repeats itself and continues like this as there is no high score table and no lives.

4kRoid is an updated version/remake of the Kiloroid. Everything Kiloroid was missing can be found in the 4Kroid version. Amazing what a difference an extra 3k makes.

The tune of Asteroids is in this one and, although nothing special, it's great to hear as you blast away at the asteroids. Same graphics as Klloroid but this time the screen is black.

I still think the asteroids move much too fast and that there should be a gradual increase in the speed as you make progress. This time you have a high score table and five lives to get you going and a level/stage indicator.

Last longer than five minutes.

Another classic clone made for the modern day.
