Blast tumbling asteroids into smaller fragments before they hit your ship. Collect salvage crystals, spend them at the refit dock between waves and see how deep into the belt you can push.
Rocks that split
Large asteroids break into fragments, so every shot changes the field.
Upgrade between waves
Spend salvage on fire rate, shields, engines and spread shot.
Survival scoring
Waves escalate without end. Your best run is the number to beat.
