In Astrosmash, the player controls a laser cannon at the bottom of the screen; the goal is to earn as many points as possible by destroying the various incoming meteors, bombs and other objects. Points are earned for destroying objects, while points are lost for letting them pass the player. Meteors are the most commonly needed item for self-defense. They come in different sizes and colors, and some even split into two smaller meteors when shot down.

Mixed in with the meteors are spinning white bombs. By letting a meteor pass, the player will only lower the score; the player must shoot the spinners. If either passes, the player will lose a life. In the more difficult levels, UFOs and guided missiles will also occasionally appear and attempt to destroy the player's cannon.

If trapped in dire straits, the cannon can enter hyperspace and be instantly transported to another location on the screen. Just be careful, sometimes the player can be transported to a worse situation than they left! The game ends when all laser cannons have been destroyed.
