Asteroids, a challenging game that stands as one of my most ambitious projects to date. Originally developed as a culmination project for the JavaScript module, it has evolved into a game that I'm immensely proud of. Maneuver through a field of asteroids, blasting them apart while avoiding collisions, in this classic space adventure!
