game doesn't work on your computer, go here

Wait for the applet and sounds to finish loading, this may take a minute or two. The game
screen will show "Game Over - 'S' to Start" once everything is ready. In the meantime you
can review the instructions below.
Note: If the game doesn't seem to be responding to key presses, click your mouse
pointer in the game area. Use the
keyboard controls described below to maneuver
your ship, destroying as many asteroids
as you can while avoiding collision with
them. Also watch for the flying saucers
armed with guided missles.
If you
warp into hyperspace, your ship will momentarily
disappear then reappear on another part
of the screen, gradually fading in. During
this time the ship is invunerable. Likewise,
when your ship is destroyed, a new one will
appear in the center of the screen. You
can still maneuver and fire during this
time so if you are in imminent danger, you
have a couple of seconds to get out of it.
