Asteroids Game
Friday, May 6th, 2005 at 12:33 pm in Addicting Games
Let me take you back… back to a world before pixels. In those days, all people had were lines. A company called Atari had recently wowed crowds with their clever use of lines in a game called Pong, but now line technology had advanced. It was 1979, and lines could be made to look like spaceships and big rocks and flying saucers… as long as you squinted a little.
And so, Asteroids was born. It’s an elegantly simple game, but beautifully gratifying. You float in space and shoot the asteroids, but the more you shoot, the more asteroids you create. And be careful â€â€? you only have one ship for each 10,000 points scored.
Instructions:
Left arrow - Turn left
Right arrow - Turn right
Up arrow - Thrust forward
Space - Fire missile
Shift key - Hyperspace
P - Pause/unpause game
Q - Quit game

It is simply polite to acknowledge the source when you post - word by word - of the description of the game.
Otherwise you’re just stealing someone’s words and passing them off as your own.
I remember LcF doing the same thing I just did with your post here: http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/03/28/how-to-increase-your-adsense-revenue/#comments
I’m sure you just forgot to include the source, and I’m not trying to scold you or anything. I just want to point out that some others might look at this as plagiarism.

Actually, you know what? Forget everything I said.
I was just bored, and I should thank you for providing me with an excuse to pass the time..

You misunderstood me. I never referred to the game itself. I meant the description on the front page.
In any case, it’s perfectly normal to have links on a blog to your source. Nobody’s gonna be upset at seeing links on a webpage.
