Alge-Blaster Game[]
A science fiction themed game played on a grid similar to the previous activity. The player's task is to protect a space station from asteroids which is done by controlling four laser cannons located in the corners of the grid. These are then controlled by entering slopes (for example 2/3). In addition to shooting the asteroids it's possible to block them by constructing webs. This is done by entering the two pairs of coordinates that the web should stretch between.
