Since it's 2D currently I assume you meant 3D.
When I first started coding this, that actually wasn't an option.
Beginning of this year I think they came out with the 3D accelerated stuff.
That's a really interesting suggestion.

Video of gameplay for those that haven't tried it

Sorry, I talked about the possible ways to move the ship. All other Asteroids do feature 2 axis (2d), at least I know. But dont take it wrong, just wondered if there are plans to make it more similar to the original.
