This doesn't work, half the widget shows graphics, other half black, nothing functions.

Close and relaunch the widget. I've noticed this happen on a few rare occasions. Unfortunately Dashboard isn't very friendly with flash right now.

Wow. I understand the "classic" graphics, but it would be nice to spice them up. Other than that, this is a really cool widget!

Nice widget. This was one of my favorite games when I was younger. Now it can be again.
Resizing would be nice as occasionally, asteroids will be moving out of the screen's view. Also...play button is difficult to select...it seems the pointer needs to be in jus the right spot for it to work.

i am very impressed with this widget, so far it has been great fun.
but i have noitced sometime i have to press the start game button more than once for it to work, it is not much of a problem but having it fixed would be great.

Nice, i love asteriods! As stated before, i have to click the start button twice for it to start and twice. Also when its game over, i have to click several times to get it back to the start screen. As for the sound, i would like to be able to turn it off. I also get a weird beep every two counts; dont know if that is suppose to happen.

lots of fun, though I had to hit Tab in order to select "play game." that took me a little while to figure out, because it wouldn't let me use the mouse to select anything. Also, I noticed in Activity Monitor that this widget alone was using 16% of my CPU even while dashboard wasn't on screen. a more efficient version of this widget would be appreciated. Still, it is fun.

Asteroids rocks!
However, there's something wrong with the user interface. I think the hotspot areas of the clickable objects need trimming. I hade to exactly the pixels of the words "PLAY GAME" to get the game running.

Great widget. Only flaw: clicking problem, but its not your fault. Besides, using Tab and Return works just fine! I love it.

I would like to see a mute option for the sound like on the Pac-Man widget. The game's great, but gets a little annoying when I'm already trying to listen to music.

Great job, I'm so glad you udpated it. The high scores thing is really cool. However, I think you should have it so it pauses when the user clicks on another widget and when the dashboard is hidden. Thanks!

You should combine all your game widgets into one arcade widget and make it minimizable.
