JS Asteroids Game Part 5 (Levels, Lives, and Game Over)

In the fifth part of this JavaScript Asteroids Game tutorial series, we add some difficulty to the game. Once the player clears the on-screen asteroids, a new level will begin with even more asteroids going at a faster rate! We also give the player three lives and add a game over function. Each level is preceded by an on-screen label using the fillText() function.

If you liked the original 1979 Atari game, Asteroids, go ahead and download the code below and create your own cool web-browser game!
