Understand the application of Flash to game development

Asteroids is a video arcade game released in November 1979 by Atari Inc. It was one of the most popular and influential games of the Golden Age of Arcade Games, selling 70,000 arcade cabinets.[1] Asteroids uses a vector display and a two-dimensional view that wraps around in both screen axes. The player controls a spaceship in an asteroid field which is periodically traversed by flying saucers. The object of the game is to shoot and destroy asteroids and saucers while not colliding with either, or being hit by the saucers' counter-fire.



This is one version of asteroids that I found online. Where you are the asteroids in stead of the ships.










This is the classic asteroids game where everything is in black and white and is very simple. I'd say that this doesn't have any particular style. But asteroids is a style due to it's historic value.









This is another version that I found on-line on a website called Learn4Good.  ..  This one was almost the same as the asteroids classic but had better graphics and had an added feature that a space ship comes and shoots you too.






Here is another classic game that reminds me of asteroids. Merely for the reason that once again in this game there are hazardous things coming towards you.
