Cosmic Blaster
Fast‑paced arcade action
Free
Fast paced arcade action inspired by the 1981 classic Astro Smash. Dodge meteors, blast satellites, trigger Time Warps, and climb the global leaderboard.
Cosmic Blaster is a modern re imagining of the 1981 classic Astro Smash, rebuilt for macOS. Command a ground based artillery cannon and defend Earth against an endless storm of meteors, spinning bombs, and hostile satellites. The sky grows more dangerous as your score rises — every object you miss costs you points, and survival becomes a thrilling test of reflexes and strategy.
Destroy meteors before they split, intercept unpredictable spinning bombs, and take down deadly satellites that fire homing missiles at your last known position. Collect Time Warp Crystals to slow or speed the action for up to 10 seconds, turning the tide when things get intense.
With Game Centre leaderboards, achievements, bonus lives, and continuously scaling difficulty, Cosmic Blaster delivers pure arcade challenge with modern polish.
