Astrofield

Test your (retro!) piloting skills

Pilot a spaceship through 10 zones of randomly spawned asteroids. Use your dodge-roll maneuver to make it to the space station. Easy to pickup, difficult to master,  every movement counts!

Most ships don't have any weapons, and a single hit from an asteroid is enough to cause most ships to explode. This game focuses on defensive flying, and risk / reward maneuvers for progression. 

Some ships have you commit to your velocity when using a dodge-roll, or even basic movements, whereas others give you much better handling and maneuverability, every ship is unique.
