| Astrosmash (Video Game) | comment |
Astrosmash is an Intellivision game published by Mattel Electronics, which was also ported to the Atari 2600 as Astroblast.In this game, you control a laser gun that fires at a constant barrage of falling meteors, trying to destroy as many as possible without being destroyed by them. Along with meteors, there are also spinners which cause you to lose a gun whenever one lands, guided missiles which home in on your position, and UFOs that fire shots at you in the later levels.The Atari 2600 version is not to be confused with the 2013 kids' show of the same name. | |

Easter Egg | |
| Astrosmash (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: An Asteroids clone called Meteor! (the original working title of the game) was hidden within the game's code on the Intellivision version. It was meant to be completely unplayable, but a bug with initializing the console meant that sometimes the game would boot up to the Meteor! title screen. Later re-releases by the Blue Sky Rangers enabled the Meteor! code deliberately. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Astrosmash (Video Game) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The Atari 2600 game Astroblast replaced the hyperspace feature of the Intellivision game with the option to play the game with either the joystick controller or the paddle controller, with the paddle controller allowing the player to move rapidly along the bottom of the screen to evade falling objects. | |

Scoring Points | |
| Astrosmash (Video Game) / int_c64bdacd | comment |
Scoring Points: You not only gain points for everything you hit, but you also lose points for every rock that lands or every gun you lose. However, that only affects your peak score, as your end-game score is the total of everything that you hit. | |
