Obviously rocks can’t cook, I mean, they have absolutely no utensils. You could cook some rocks though. Well it wouldn’t make for a tasty meal, but you could toast them with laser fire! You know. Beep…… Boop…… Beep……. Boop……. Jing-jing-jing. Beep… Boop… Beep… Boop… Jing-jing. Do-de-do-de-do-de-do-de-do. Beep. Boop. Beep. Boop. Jing-jing-jing. Pash! Next ship. Okay so the beeps and boops is the music or background ambient sound, the jing-jing is the sound of the laser fire, the do-de-do is that little flying saucer that comes out for extra bonus points, and the “Pash” is the sound of your ultimate demise. Okay so it’s hard to faithfully reproduce the sounds of Asteroids in text, but I did the best I could, did I not? Asteroids one of the founding fathers of games. Well I guess it’s not a person, so it wouldn’t be a founding father exactly. Part of the bedrock of games. Or something. Rocks by Ooeyug. Is generally an Asteroids clone. Of course shooting rocks isn’t the only thing you can do in it.
What I think of it: It’s great, the graphics, and sounds (and the few musical snippets) are frosting. It also has a few things inspired by games like Geometry Wars. It’s fun, but with a warning. It is EXTREMELY challenging. My butt got handed to me quite early.
So read on, all you rock blasting fanatics!
