Thank you very much for publishing about Asteroid. You have to know it *doesn’t* use Seaside but plain Comanche (a Squeak Web Server).
And you can find a more interesting example at:

It’s a proof of concept of a Squeak’s World drawn in the Browser, using Comet to push the damage-rectangles areas.
Cheers,

really cool Comet demostration.
Congratulations Diego
