## Description

_Astrobatics_ is a space scrolling shoot ’em up. Like in many other games of
its type, the player controls a spaceship and flies right, blasting enemy
ships and avoiding their attacks. The ship’s shields are depleted by
collisions with enemies and enemy missiles, and the player loses a life when
the shields run out. Enemies include both smaller enemy ships and powerful
bosses with health bars.

The ship is initially armed with a weak gun, but bonus items can be picked up
which improve the player’s firepower, attach additional weaponry, or grant
special limited-use items such as mines, homing missiles etc. The player’s gun
charges when not firing for a while, and when fully charged it can shoot a
powerful laser beam.
