 In **Challenge Mode**, your ship will fly through a different stream of asteroids, but you won't be able to see what happens and you won't be able to edit your code during a run. This mimics what it might be like to actually send an AI probe into space; you can't be beside it to watch what happens first-hand, but you can get some reports back from its sensors. The asteroid field in Challenge Mode has a fixed length (24 Challenge Zones). Your progress will be shown on-screen, and your high scores will be saved when your ship meets its end or when you successfully complete a run.
+To switch between modes, click the toggle button above the Playing Field and then reset the game.
