Playing Through My Evercade Collection Part 1: Atari Vol 1

Asteroids often for me is very take it or leave it but hoo boy. I get what they were going for with this port and I sort of dig the multicoloured rocks but somewhere along the way the coding for the Asteroids just failed completely and they move so lazily in such predictable patterns.

Its entirely possible to rack up megapoints by just staying absolutely still and shooting from the centre, never once touching the thrusters to actually move around the stage.

So basically its babys first Asteroids. Its not the worst but its so simple that it basically gets stale rather fast.
