Vectoroids - Vector-based asteroid-shooting game

'Vectoroids' is a vector-based asteroid shooting game with nice looking vector graphics and a photographic background of Jupiter. Based on the X-Window game "Agendaroids" (for the Agenda VR3 GNU/Linux-based handheld PDA), it was expanded with color graphics and music for desktop workstations, and then altered again for the Sharp Zaurus GNU/Linux-based handheld PDA.
