* EasterEgg: An ''VideoGame/{{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.

'''Astrosmash''' is an UsefulNotes/{{Intellivision}} game published by [[Creator/{{Mattel}} Mattel Electronics]], which was also ported to the UsefulNotes/{{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.

!!This game provides examples of
* DifficultyLevels: Four in the Intellivision version.
* [[EveryTenThousandPoints Every 1,000 Points]]: You get a new gun every time your peak score passes a 1,000-point mark.
* TheGoldenAgeOfVideoGames
* ScoringPoints: 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.
* ShootEmUp
* VideoGameLives: Ten in the Atari 2600 version, with an extra one awarded every 1,000 points.
