HOW TO PLAY
Goal is to survive as long as possible without crashing against any of the asteroids or running out of fuel.
Asteroids can be destroyed from a single laser beam.
Spawn Asteroids give you a Spawn when destroyed, they're colorful compared to others.
Spawns are basically your clones that can follow you around and shoot alongside you wherever you're pointing, they can also boost your fire rate to an extent. You can only have up to ten spawns.
Spawns can also be sacrificed for fuel. If a spawn collides with an asteroid you get 10% fuel. If you collide with an asteroid while a spawn exists the spawn will be destroyed. But if there's no spawn you die immediately.
Use this to figure out how to balance fuel and spawns. Good luck!

Kinda nice, very annoying that fullscreen doesn't work and that in small mode the mouse is not locked to the screen. Makes it way too easy to move out of screen
The music was a bit loud for me, but there's nothing a little volume down on my pc couldn't fix. I like the overall spacey feel of the game, music was a mixed bag for me though.
