Build a playable Asteroids game on a canvas: a thrust-and-rotate vector ship that shoots and wraps around the screen edges, splitting asteroids into smaller pieces, with score and lives. Procedural vector graphics only, no external assets.

The user wants me to build a complete Asteroids game in a single HTML file. This is a classic arcade game that features:
1. A vector-style spaceship that:
- Can thrust (move forward)
- Can rotate left/right
- Can shoot bullets
- Wraps around screen edges
2. Asteroids that:
- Move across the screen
- Split into smaller pieces when shot
- Have different sizes (large, medium, small)
3. Game mechanics:
- Score tracking
- Lives system
- Game over/restart functionality
4. Technical requirements:
- All procedural vector graphics (no images)
- Single HTML file with inline CSS and JS
- No external resources or CDNs
Let me build this comprehensive game:

This is a comprehensive Asteroids game. Let me review and make sure everything is working correctly:
1. Ship controls - ✓ (Arrow keys or WASD)
2. Shooting - ✓ (Space bar)
3. Screen wrapping - ✓
4. Asteroid splitting - ✓
5. Score tracking - ✓
6. Lives system - ✓
7. Particle effects - ✓
8. Game over/restart - ✓
The game should be fully functional. Let me write it to the file.I'll create a complete Asteroids game with vector graphics, ship controls, shooting, screen wrapping, asteroid splitting, score, and lives - all in a single HTML file.

The file has been created successfully. Let me verify it was written properly by checking the file exists.
I've created a complete, fully playable Asteroids game in `index.html`. Here's what's included: **Features:** - **Vector Ship** - Triangular ship that rotates and thrusts with smooth physics and momentum - **Controls** - Arrow keys or WASD for movement, SPACE to shoot - **Screen Wrapping** - Ship, bullets, and asteroids wrap around all edges - **Asteroid Physics** - Asteroids split into 2 smaller pieces when shot (Large → Medium → Small → Destroyed) - **Scoring System** - 20 pts (large), 50 pts (medium), 100 pts (small) - **Lives System** - Start with 3 lives, displayed in UI and as mini ship icons - **Invincibility** - Brief invincibility after respawning (ship blinks) - **Particle Effects** - Thrust flames, bullet trails, explosion particles - **Debris System** - Ship breaks into pieces when destroyed - **Progressive Difficulty** - More asteroids spawn as score increases **Game States:** - Start screen with title - Active gameplay - Game over with final score and restart option All graphics are procedurally drawn using canvas vector paths - no external assets or network requests required!
