BLASTEROIDS --- FROM OUTER SPAAACE!!!

A take on the old Asteroids game.

You level up your gun and shield with powerups, or plonk down some auto-turrets instead!  The game starts off pretty easy, but gradually gets harder...

Let me know your high score!  My personal best so far is: 96 Blasteroids, with a High Score of 5'300'410!

CONTROLS

There are more detailed instructions in the Help screen of the game.

W/S: forwards towards the mouse cursor/reverse

Mouse: aim

Left click: shoot (you can hold it down)

Right click: place turrets (costs a Powerup)

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT

I have some ideas for adding things to it later on, if enough people like it or help out with some donations:

- multiplayer?

- more diverse arsenal and turrets

- some better graphics for the simple stuff I made

- the real threat... blasteroids that fight back...

BEFORE YOU PLAY

- You might want to check out the Options and set the SFX to the middle button to save your ears from bleeding too much.

Horrifyingly, I forgot to use git for this project...

This project has taken 22 hours and 22 minutes from start to me writing this line before publishing this page!  I timed it using SuperProductivity.
