Read full description

Asteroid Glider is a retro space shooter. You play as a glider trying to avoid the astroids shot at you. The goal is to survive as long as possible while gliding around the asteroid or just destroying them using your blaster! Try to avoid the rocks, because you'll take damage when they hit you. Yellow rocks are filled with coins and coins mean more points! Try to get health pickups too when you lost too much health. Asteroid Glider is fully made of pixel art and 8-bit sound. It also uses the Taptic Engine to make the game feel like a classic arcade game! Particles are used to enhance the retro vibe and shading of the top and bottom area is used to make it look like you are playing on your favourite plastic handheld!
