Homie Demo
Asteroids Arena, a moment of play

Asteroids Arena

Up to six ships on one wrap-around rock field. Top score in two minutes wins.

Doug McInnes's 2010 HTML5 Asteroids as a score race: every ship blasts the same rocks and saucer, a hit costs you only time, and an upright phone follows your own ship. Bots fill empty seats.
