It's a great idea, but actually playing it is a bit difficult. Part of it is the randomness of asteroid spawn, which I understand and respect (part of the design philosophy of the games from the 80's it clearly homages), but having to click on each individual meteorite and drag the mouse to create a vector gets overwhelming quickly as the number of asteroids on the screen grows. I'd love to see some high level player (or AI) on it :)

How does your game fit the theme?
I took the arcade game Asteroids, and 'reversed the players role', making him play as the asteroids and no the ship.
