Avoid The Asteroids
A downloadable game for Windows
Avoid The Asteroids is a fast-paced arcade survival game focused on quick reactions and deliberate movement.
Asteroids don’t just fall randomly — their movement is designed to pressure your positioning and decision-making over time. As the game progresses, surviving becomes less about luck and more about reading the screen.
Simple controls, increasing difficulty, and instant restarts make it ideal for short, intense play sessions.
Controls:
- Arrow keys: Move
- Space: Jump
- Left Mouse: Shoot
Made for Brainless Mini Game Jam.

Really impressive for a first game, you really did understand game mechanics and focused on the arcade ramp difficulty, there’s room for improvement but, I really liked the main concept of deep movement decisions, a suggestion would be to make the blocks disappear from slow and heavy meteors to improve decision-making, and maybe to adjust the shooting mechanic to follow the cursor if possible for dealing with large meteors, also there’s an option to make the pixel art sharp in Game Maker for preventing anti-aliased sprites. Great Job!
I’m really glad you noticed the movement decision aspect — that was one of my main goals. Your suggestions about meteor behavior and aiming make a lot of sense, I’ll definitely keep them in mind for future versions / projects. Appreciate it!
I helped with the art. Proud that you pushed through and got it made
I'm glad to hear you say that!
Really cool game, simple but fun . Great potencial
Thanks so much!
