2.1 Core Gameplay

• Objective: Survive as long as possible by navigating a spaceship through an asteroid field, collecting crystals to maintain energy, and using bonuses to overcome obstacles.

• Controls:

  • Arrow Up / W: Move ship up.

  • Arrow Down / S: Move ship down.

  • Spacebar: Fire Laser Blast (if available).

  • 1: Activate Double Shield (if available).

  • 2: Activate Crystal Magnet (if available).

• Energy System: The energy bar depletes over time. Collect yellow or blue crystals (worth 20 points each and restore 10% energy) to keep playing. Game ends if energy reaches zero.

• Obstacles: Avoid asteroids; collision without a shield ends the game.
