About
 GPasteroids is a vector graphics action game. You are 
 in a field of asteroids. Try to get free without colliding.
 Cooperate with your friends or fight them in deathmatch
 mode using the gplink.

Keys
 In the starting screen:
  use up/down to select the game mode.
  Start starts the game. 
 During the game:
  left/right   Turns your ship
  A            Fires a laser torpedo
  B            Your ship thrusts once, tap several times to
                build up speed.
  R            Your shield goes up if you still have shield
                 power left. (Indicated in the lower right c.)
  L            Hyperspace jump. (Your ship will jump to a random 
                 position in space. This is good to escape, but 
                 sometimes your ship can jump right into an 
                 asteroid and will be destroyed.)
  Select       Pauses the game.

Game play
 Try to shoot all the asteroids to clear the field and advance 
 to a higher level. 
 There are exactly 462 levels, four different asteroid types 
 and more asteroids as a group of levels is finished.

Asteroid types
 Normal
  Your normal everyday asteroid.
 Magnetic
  Probably high content of magnetic minerals, so it will be
  attracted by your ship.
 Missile
  A self defence measure is implemented on these asteroids. 
  If you shoot them, they throw debris back at you.
 Combo
  These asteroids are the most nasty. They are magnetic and 
  have a self defence measure installed.

Extras
 An extra ship is awarded each 10000 points.
 At higher levels, an alien spacecraft will show up from time to 
 time. He is not very polite and will just try to kill you since 
 you invaded his private property.

Multiplayer
 Connect gplinks to two gp23s. Start GPasteroids on both and 
 select one of two choices for a multiplayer game:
  Cooperate
   Try to clear the asteroid fields together. Your friends ship
   is immune to your laser torpedos. But be careful that you 
   dont collide, since both ships will be destroyed then.
   When finished, you can compare the scores.
  Deathmatch
   A lot of points (5000) are awarded if you can manage to kill
   your friend :). Please be reminded that for 10000 points you will
   get an extra ship, so go for it! You can shoot your friend or
   even push him into asteroids by using your shield.

Have fun!
