Player becomes a space miner gathering precious minerals between the asteroids. But the danger isn't only in flying space rocks. There are space monsters popping out of a wormhole.

Let's look closer at navigation of our ship. The ships is moved in space by inertia force so you have to engage rocket engines to change speed and direction of the flight. This is much more realistic approach then common aircraft-like movement. To slow down your ship you have to thrust backward. The control is performed by stylus. The ship rotates toward stylus and amount of thrust depends on the distance between the ship and the stylus. This gives your precise control over your ship movement. And you need this because you have to avoid asteroids, mines and monsters while gathering treasures.

The monsters come in play. There are 5 types of them from stupid ones who moves randomly and dangerous only if you touch them to aggressive monsters chasing you and firing at you. Touching a monster of catching a shot is not fatal while you still have the shields.

You are prepared to fight back. First of your weapons is a laser gun you can fire at will. Second is an auto aiming missiles. Third is the mines you can set to blow off the monsters chasing you. The last is a nuke bomb that clears a level from enemies.
Only laser gun has infinite ammo. Other types of ammo you can find among the asteroids and pick ammo falling from killed monsters. Also you can find additional shield batteries to recharge your shields.

Each level have a time to complete. Scoring depends on time left and monsters killed. Dead monsters also can drop coins. You can pick these coins to increase your score slightly.

Crystal Quest, not "Space Quest"
4.5!
Long time ago I've played Crystal Quest on Mac with same control idea - you accelerate toward the mouse. Or decelerate if the mouse is behind you. And you can fire forward when you move. Same idea here but much more extended. No borders, obstacles, different weapons, monsters firing, planets with their gravity. But I think higher levels are too tought.
