There are enemy ships and asteroids that can be shot at and destroyed to gain points. However, if the ship comes in contact with an asteroid or is shot by an enemy ship one life is lost from the initial three the player starts with. There is also a fuel meter which steadily decreases as time goes on, when it is fully depleted, the player loses a life.
