Objective for AI: The objective for an artificial intelligence playing Astro-Blaster would be to maximize its score by: Survival: Prioritizing avoiding collisions with asteroids and enemy projectiles. Target Prioritization: Deciding which enemies to engage first (e.g., higher-threat enemies, enemies that will soon fire, or groups of enemies for efficient clearing). Power-up Collection: Efficiently collecting beneficial power-ups while avoiding those that might put the player in danger. Resource Management: Judiciously using the limited special ability for optimal impact (e.g., clearing the screen during overwhelming situations or for boss damage). Pattern Recognition: Learning and adapting to enemy movement patterns and boss attack sequences. Optimal Pathing: Navigating the asteroid field to create safe zones and maximize firing opportunities.

Lives System: The player starts with a set number of lives. Losing all lives results in a "Game Over." Visuals: Pixel art style with vibrant colors, simple animations, and classic arcade sound effects. The background scrolls vertically to give the illusion of movement through space.
