ABOUT ASTEROIDS...

Asteroids 1.02

UPDATED: Asteroids is the fast paced EPOC port of the old arcade favourite by the same name.

One of the fastest paced EPOC games available, Asteroids recreates an arcade classic in full EPOC glory!

Featuring a magnitude of options, vector graphics, reverse video and digial sound effects, this should rank at the top of your gaming list alongside our very own TileFall, Blobs, Chain Reaction and, of course, RMR's DeVender

In 1.02: Fix to keyboard response rate - Asteroids is now much more responsive and is now independent of whatever key repeat rate you have set in Control Panel, making the game much more playable.


Oh, and last but not least, it's completely free!
