Typically refers to a style of game where a player's ship can rotate 360 degrees on a 2d plane and is responsible for shooting and destroying on coming asteroids. The asteroids start out large, but divide into smaller obstacles as they are damaged. The game becomes more difficult and chaotic as asteroids are broken into the smaller pieces.
Pixel Art refers to the charming, simplistic, retro/renaissance style of very-low-resolution graphics, such as from the 1977-1995 Atari, GameBoy, & Super Nintendo (SNES) eras.
