Destroy the asteroids and enemy ships in an update of the classic arcade game.
Featuring rendered graphics, procedurally generated backgrounds and multiple power-ups cronusX brings the genre bang up to date.
Here's our homage to the old classic "Asteroids".
Being fans of arena shooters we've tried to take some of the best elements of those and mix it with the old school gameplay of asteroids.
This is pure score attack, so no shops, no missions and no real strategies as such, just power-ups and shooting. Lots of shooting.
Enjoy the destruction.
Game Instructions:
Destroy everything you see.
Controls:
Movement: Arrows key or W,A,S,D. Fire: Left Click Mouse. Switch Weapon: Spacebar. Pause: P.
Update v1.2:
Auto pause when you lose focus has been removed.
A flocker teleporting on top of you never meant you lost any energy, but I've put a glow effect in there to show a shield kicking in.
Also now checks for asteroids moving in a straight line off screen.
(The cause of all the "I've completed the level but it just sits there" issues. There was a rock still moving, just hidden).
Thanks for all the feedback so far.
