Remember Virus Arcade?
If you've been following us for a while then you'll remember that Asteroids we have already spoken thanks to the beautiful project Virus Arcade. On that occasion we went a little "out of context" when talking about a video game Not Open source because he was a charitable project. We also really liked the idea of giving Good news about the coronavirus. Virus Arcade however it was a fun online version but without any pretense of a real video game. It was very simple and didn't have many of the features of the original Asteroids.
So let's get back to talking about Asteroids, this time with gods real clones Open source really well made, fun to play and will keep you company for several hours if you manage to get them right!

Maelstorm 3.0
The first video game we're talking about play Asteroids offline it's called Maelstorm and it's a project Open source 4. It's really well made and a lot of fun. The asteroids break into a thousand pieces like in the original game and we already like this! The spaceship can be moved with the keyboard arrows, while the button was designed to shoot TAB. With the space you can activate a temporary shield. All the keys are anyway configurable at the start of the game. There is a version for Windows and that too for Linux. Good fun!
