The Game

As Commander of the Astro-runner spacecraft, you must negotiate the asteroid storm by blasting and dodging the drifting rocks.

From the 'front sheet' display you have the option to use joysticks or keyboard to control your craft and you can switch the sound effects on or off. Space bar starts the game. When you first appear on the screen, you craft will be protected by a force-field. This will remain operative until you either move or fire (on the keyboard mode) or press the fire button (on the joystick mode).

Large asteroids, when hit split into two medium sized asteroids and these in turn will break into small asteroids when hit. The small asteroids will totally disintegrate when hit. Additional hazards are the alien spacecraft. These appear at random on the screen and will try to ram and shoot you. The little ones are deadly accurate.

Escape at any time will return you to the 'front page' display and reset all the options back to their default values.
