Rock Blaster Unblocked

Turn, thrust and fire to break tumbling space rocks into ever smaller chunks while dodging enemy saucers.

now playing: Rock Blaster

Everything here glows like an old arcade monitor. Rock Blaster unblocked puts a small triangle ship in the middle of the screen and surrounds it with slowly spinning space rocks that crack apart when you shoot them.

Your ship keeps sliding after you stop thrusting, and anything that flies off one edge reappears on the opposite side. Frank Force made it for his open-source LittleJS Arcade.

How to play Rock Blaster

Press Play and your ship spawns in the center, blinking briefly while it is safe. Turn to face a rock and fire. Large rocks break into medium ones, medium ones break into small ones, and small ones disappear.

The first wave has four big rocks, and each later wave adds one more. A wave is only done once every rock and saucer is gone. You can have a handful of shots in the air at once, and each fades after a short distance.

Saucers drop in from time to time. The large one fires wildly, while the small one targets you and grows more accurate as your score rises. Touching a rock, saucer or enemy shot costs one of your three ships.

Tips

  • Use short bursts of thrust. The ship drifts a long way, so tap thrust instead of holding it, and turn around to slow down.
  • Break rocks one at a time. Shooting everything at once fills the screen with small, fast pieces. Clean up one family before starting the next.
  • Small rocks pay the most. They are worth far more than big ones, so it is worth chasing the last fragments.
  • Take out small saucers fast. They are hard to hit but worth a lot, and their aim keeps improving the longer they live.
  • Keep hyperspace for emergencies. It moves you to a random spot and needs a moment to recharge before you can use it again.

Rock Blaster questions

How do I get more ships?

You earn an extra ship every 10,000 points. A chime plays and the lives counter goes up by one.

Do saucer shots break rocks?

Yes, they can, but you get no points when a saucer does the work for you.

Can I play Rock Blaster on a phone?

Yes. Steer with the left-hand stick, while round buttons on the right thrust, fire and jump. The glow effect starts off on touch devices, and you can turn it on in Options.
