Arteroids is Jim Andrews's shoot-em-up poetry videogame. It is widely regarded as one of the most lively, engaging works of digital poetry.
This book contains most of the hundreds of texts that the game can display after the player completes a level or is killed by marauding texts. These texts address the player and explore the relations between poetry, games, and play. The book also contains some of the texts that can appear during game-play, and new and old writings by Andrews about Arteroids.
