Comet Busters!
Description official description
Comet Busters is an Asteroids-style game for one to four players. The player must blast all the comet chunks to advance to the next level. But there are evil saucers, alien cronies, and flying chunks of dead planets all waiting for you.
You can play single player on one PC, or multiplayer over modem, serial cable, or TCP/IP network (the Internet!). You also have four special abilities:
- Hyperspace
- Shields
- Disrupter
- Cloak (only useful for multiplayer)
You can play full screen in any game. Another feature is tournament mode, where two to four players compete to see who is the last one left on each level. In this mode, you can choose between having the rocks bounce, be destroyed when you shoot them, or no rocks.
It features support for sound cards, or the PC speaker. You can also have MIDI music, even make it random.

Trivia
Bugs
In the first version, 1.0, there was a bug where your spaceship would get very big if you used hyperspace too much.
Cronies
The deadly happy faces are actually called cronies, it says so in the help and on the official Web site.
