| abstract | - A common type of enemy, an Asteroids Monster is a creature of significant size that, when killed, splits into several miniature versions of itself. Sometimes, killing these may result in further miniature versions, which may in turn split into even smaller versions. There can be any number of stages, although three seems to be the most common number. The Asteroids Monster is often also a Blob Monster. The miniature versions may grow to normal size if they are not killed quickly. Also, the smaller asteroids tend to be faster than the bigger versions, thus making them even more dangerous. The Asteroids Monster is typically not a boss, but are usually Demonic Spiders or at least Goddamn Bats. It occasionally shows up as the Mini Boss. The Asteroids Monster is named after the arcade game Asteroids, which featured asteroids that would explode into two small asteroids when hit, which could further be split into even smaller asteroids. The smaller the asteroid, the more points it was worth. Related to Hydra Problem. Examples of Asteroids Monster include:
