Nice sound effects, they really worked with the game. Although I found that I could spin stationary at the centre of the board and repeatedly shoot at which point I destroyed all the asteroids and collected all the power ups. It didn't say I won at that point though :(
You could improve the mood by potentially putting stars in the background :D

I can confirm it works on ubuntu 14.04 (it would count as a port).
i got all the resources via the same method as gwilym. the ship/asteroid ship detection was pretty paranoid, so it was difficult to pilot the ship, and i just stayed stationary until most of the asteroids were destroyed. i thought it would've been fun to be hit by your own lasers.
sound was loud!
Works really well!
Well done.
Only one issue I found, actually: I "solved" the game by using the same method as Gwilym and jangler suggested.
A simple way to stop this is by giving the user limited ammo and then each time you collect a box, add some ammo to the user - then make the goal of the game to destroy all the asteroids.

Another thing: the triangle looks almost the same from all directions -> hard to tell (without shooting or moving) which way you're currently facing. Maybe make it thinner?
I like the retro feeling ( sfx + control ) but I would have expected an asteroid respawn when I kill all the asteroid or get all bonus. In this state the game seems unfinished. A simple explosion animation on collision & a level finish detection would have make it a "full" game.
