Okay, so Asteroids Hyper 64 is basically the classic arcade shooter but cranked up for the N64—and yeah, it’s way more chaotic than you’d expect. You’re still dodging and blasting asteroids, but now everything’s in chunky 3D, with neon-colored explosions and these weirdly satisfying power-ups that turn your little ship into a death machine.

First few minutes? Pure panic. The asteroids don’t just drift at you—they spiral, split into smaller chunks, and sometimes there’s this eerie background music that makes it feel like you’re actually stranded in space. The controls take a sec to get used to (N64 analog stick vibes), but once you’re weaving through the rocks and stacking multipliers, it’s hard to put down.

Not gonna lie, it’s janky in that late-’90s way, but if you’re into retro shooters or just want something to play in short bursts, this one’s weirdly addictive. Just don’t blame me when you lose an hour to “one more run.”
