Asteroids Quest
Description
You control a small spaceship exploring space, destroying asteroids, and earning currency to upgrade your ship.
Asteroids appear in battle sections. Move, shoot, and survive to collect rewards.
If your ship is destroyed, you lose all lives and must try again.
Use upgrades to strengthen your ship as asteroids grow tougher.
Explore new areas, talk to NPCs, and complete quests to progress the story.
