About Space Crash
Captain Rogers is a hero defending the Galaxy. He knows no fear. He knows no remorse. Actually, he doesn't know much in general. Captain Rogers needs to fly through the dangerous sector of the space, while his spaceship's system experienced an error and the laser controls don't work as expected. Will our hero be able survive such harsh conditions? Especially when there's no more "Astro-bud" on board. The Captain’s ship is constantly rotating in space. Tap anywhere on the screen to make it go up a little bit. You can’t fly off the screen or crash into an asteroid. Oh - the ship’s laser gun jammed and are firing all the time (try to destroy some asteroids with the laser shots for points).
