forgot to record this last night

• Added lots of new asteroids
• Tiny asteroids can be pushed by flares and destroyed by laser blasts
• Small asteroids can be pushed by laser blasts
• Tiny and small asteroids now have mini-map icons
• Added two new music tracks to the Void of Space area

This is the smallest of the new asteroids I’ve drawn for Galactic Tomorrow.

And if we zoom out…

We can see how it compares in size to the largest of my original asteroids.

But I didn’t just draw new asteroids that were significantly smaller than the originals…

I drew some that were significantly larger too.
