Asteroids: A Classic Video Game

I played the Asteroids game, and it was pretty interesting. The graphics reminded me of the arcade games of the 80s: Pac Man and Galaxy. The first time I played it I kept running into asteroids without even scoring. I thought that I had to survive the asteroids for a certain number of time, when instead, I should have been shooting as many asteroids as a can with only 3 lives. The highest score I've ever got is 4610.
