Meteoroid Madness (Alpha 0.1 available for download)


Basically the goal is to gain as much score points before you die.

So here is a game that takes a lot from Asteroid and mixes some other elements in to it.
Instead of just shooting the meteoroids, you have to take them apart and see what’s inside of them.
Diamonds (and later on other similar stuff) will provide you score points, buff items will give you buffs for limited time or untill you take damage.
Be aware! When you split big rocks, you might get some nasty surprises. Like UFO that moves around and shoots at you.

As the game progress, you will start to get various kinds of Meteoroids (minerals) that will have varying unique (or even nastier) surprises inside.

Velocity will also keep growing over time for freshly spawned meteoroids

Controls are simple. Mouse right button will provide your ship thrust and mouse left button will shoot.
Later on I might add additional controls for keyboard. (switchable skills etc).

Heavily optimized, small graphical updates and overally cleaned up version.
Next phase will be to implement all the content in.

This version has no menus for faster testing.

I played it. I wasn´t able to move the ship other than just rotating it. Is this wanted or why can´t i move?

Does the console give you any error? Sounds a bit like a missing file error, but it all should be there on the zip package.
Are you playing on Windows?

Here’s an update with menus (highscore not working yet).

Ran in to a weird crash bug where Blender crashes on “Game over”, when dying.
