I still have to update the version here with the changes. I doubt I could sell it since Atari owns the rights to original Asteroids game :) Check out <a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CB8QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Fataris-greatest-hits%2Fid422966028%3Fmt%3D8&ei=SorkTe2RHYj6swOK3ZQW&usg=AFQjCNGIFhIlTcsIZ5EhFObAY1bIQ28yrQ" rel="nofollow">Atari's Greatest Hits</a> for the iPad, it came out recently and has Asteroids. I've been playing tons of Centipede. Currently I'm working on a more ambitious HTML 5 game (probably too ambitious) so watch this space for that when it gets nearer to completion.

I think a true replication of the original would sell well. I checked out the other iPad implementations and didn't find one 'worthy'. I liked the look and feel of yours. Will you go on to add scoring, hyperspace, etc?? Thanks Steve Hi Doug,
