This is a good question, and it brings up a bigger question I was wondering about...is there a manual for the game? It would be nice to know the scoring system at least.

Stlrs95 Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Wow, that’s a big jump. I’m still trying to get back to my first night playing if 6k. 😢 Although Donut Dodo has been taking away a lot of my Asteroids play. Haha Sabertooth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.joe Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 I officially hate the deathstar planet killer power up on asteroids as much as I hate the red ring of death power up on blackwidow . Just sayin! Sabertooth, RickR and Stlrs95 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sayin! It's not bad if you have a big grouping of asteroids. The one I hate is the burst. It is short range and whenever I get it the damn UFO's seem to appear. They hover just out of range and shoot me!!! 🤬 RickR, Sabertooth and D.joe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 7-burst is too short range and causes undue risk in trying to get closer to targets. Some of these power-ups, you just have to take a defensive approach and wait for them to expire.

RickR Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 It's hard because of only one life, and it requires full focus for more than just a few minutes. I swear I'm no longer capable of that kind of focus anymore. 53 years old. No focus, but still having fun. E. King and Sabertooth 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
