Asteroids 44 (For Four)

Asteroids 44 is an unabashed, lazy ripoff of Asteroids (Copyright Atari, 1979). Many lazy "amateur" developers don't pay attention to their obligations under copyright law, and often steal the ideas of actual, real game developers without credit, such as the "developer" here has done. At this stage no legal action has been taken by Atari against the "developer" here, but it's never off the table, as previous copyright law cases have shown. Absolutely this game breaches both Atari's copyrights and trademarks for the Asteroids game, and in some states and parts of the world this flagrant violation of international copyright law is a criminal offense. Putting aside the unethical intellectual bankruptcy of stealing someone else's game concept for profit, this is also breaking that unwritten law of stealing other people's game ideas... you should at least try to do better than the game you're ripping off. This is much, much worse than Atari's classic Asteroids game. This features really godawful low poly "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating contemporary 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 5 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Absolutely not... and when Atari heears about this and takes action, it will be gone.

Juego super super super genial, creo que pueden pasar un super buen rato divirtiendose con este maravilloso juego, la jugabilidad es muy buena y ademas me hace recordar aquellos juegos clasicos, Lo super recomiendo!

Nice co-op game for late evening with friends, still few things missing but playable :)

Игра "Asteroids 44 (For Four)" – это взрыв ностальгии, переосмысленный для современной компании! Классический геймплей "Asteroids", где нужно уничтожать астероиды и избегать вражеского огня, получил здесь новую жизнь благодаря поддержке до четырех игроков. Мультиплеер добавляет хаотичного веселья, превращая игру в безумную гонку за выживание и очки. Особенно радует возможность как кооперативной игры, помогая друг другу, так и соревновательной, расчищая путь от астероидов и подставляя товарищей под вражеские залпы. Ретро-графика, хоть и проста, но отлично передает дух оригинальной игры. Управление отзывчивое, что критически важно для динамичного геймплея. В целом, "Asteroids 44" – это отличный выбор для вечера с друзьями, желающими вспомнить классику аркад, получив при этом массу новых впечатлений. Единственное, что можно было бы улучшить, – это добавить больше разнообразия в типы врагов и улучшений для кораблей.

Oldschool game with a modern graphics and nice gameplay. The minimum requirements are exaggerated in GFX, but too low in memory. Running even a pure Win7 on 2 gigs is a real cumberstone. How to play on 2 gigs of memory? Anyway on computer with 3rd genetration of Core i5 and integrated Intel HD 4000 and 8 gigs of ram the game runs nice at about 15-20 fps, so no extraordinary GFX is needed on middle class processors. On i7 8th gen, 16 GB and Intel Iris 655 runs perfecly smooth. I would recommend developer to: - add more variability in gfx, those stones are repeating way too much; - develop animations to have more smooth transitions between neighboring sizes of stones; - change the difficulty - it's really hard to destroy all of the stones on 3rd or 4th level when te gun is so weak. - add a controls customization (!!!) to use arrows and other keys than K and L.
